I know we haven't talked in ages and I haven't read from your blog in forever (hangs head in shame) but J - who I also haven't spoken to in ages sent me an email and mentioned this post in your blog so of course I had to read it. I of course cried, and I didn't even know your friend but she sounds like a very special person. But you too are special and have such a gift - a gift with words! I miss you my friend!

Since she was from Jacksonville, I also called & talked to her before ever coming to LaGrange(I had never seen the campus before.) Funny though,I just assumed she taught English like you!

Not just for her quirky sense of style and awesome classroom, but mostly for the loving and caring educator that she was. She wasnt just your teacher, she was your friend. They dont make many like her and maybe thats why she shown so bright. The world is a little darker without her.

I think of you often... almost 10 years after stepping from that American Lit class full of Magnet nerds.
