Heather Mae Perkins Dengler passed away on March 19, 2020, after a long battle with cancer. She is survived by her husband Bob Dengler, her mother Linda Jenkins, siblings and a large extended family in New York and Texas.

Heather taught English Language Arts at West Middle School in Binghamton for the past eight years. She spent dozens of summer and evening hours lovingly creating a classroom that immediately welcomed anyone that stepped into it. She spent years building a classroom library that included hundreds of books in every genre imaginable, and she loved sharing and discussing each of the books with her students. Heather didn't just teach; she gave her everything with love and compassion so that her students would find passion in learning, reading, and, most importantly, in feeling loved. To the West Middle Community, she was more than a teacher and colleague. She was a friend, support for fellow teachers, an advocate for her students, and a source for wonderful and sometimes crazy ideas. Heather's passing leaves a huge void in West Middle School and to our community. We would like to thank the Mercy House in Endicott for the excellent caregiving during her last days to give her comfort.

In Lieu of sending flowers, donations can be made to Binghamton West middle school in memory of Heather and also Mercy House Services will be announced at a later date.
