  • My sympathies to Miss Klim's family. Miss Klim was a great teacher for accounting, she was very helpful when we had problems or didn't understand something. And she had a great memory for remembering former students who came by to visit her and the other teachers. I am from the Class of 79'. - Posted by: Richard Girouard (Former student of Sucess Angus/Commercial College) on: Oct 03, 2015
