Pat Barrineau was a “friend who encouraged me to go back to school and get a degree in early childhood education,” Thomas Moore writes. “She was a kindergarten teacher and a dear friend. Another person who encouraged me was Dr. Bobbie Rowland. She was a professor of early childhood education at UNCC.” Dannye Romine’s obituary article on Barrineau, published Nov. 16, 1991, is here.
