Abbie Sosa
Farewell to a fearless and passionate leader, the founding principal of Norman S. Edelcup/Sunny Isles Beach K-8, the one who I called my boss for 8 years. I’ll never forget the day she interviewed me over the phone (something she rarely did). Quickly I learned that she was very meticulous in the hiring process, as she only seeked the best. Nonetheless, in spite of my inexperience and insecurity, she saw potential in me and I had yet to discover it for myself as an educator. She was methodical, somewhat of a perfectionist, bold, and with high standards for success. Her actions exemplified the values she expected of her employees, staff, and students. She led by example. I’m grateful for having been blessed with such a remarkable leader in the early stage of my career. Dr. Weissman, you will be missed and the memories of you will be cherished by those who knew you and whose lives you have touched.
With much respect, Berania Abigail Sosa
