My heart goes out to all who knew and loved Mrs. Raulerson. As a former principal in OCPS (Positive Pathways), Mrs. Raulerson was my right hand. She took care of me as if I were her family. Never letting me miss a meeting, appointment, or student celebration. Her dedication to her job, the staff she worked with, and our students was evident each and every day. We all loved her so very much. I will be praying for the family and I know God will hold their heart gently in his hands to ease their pain. Rest In Peace my friend. Dale Johns. Go Gators!
