In 1996, I was a middle school choral director....and I also worked with the elementary choirs which fed into my school.
When my daughter died, I got a whole BOX of letters from my students....and among those were letters from the 5th & 6th grade choirs.......
One of those letters read:
"Dear Mz. Hall,
I'm so sorry your daughter pasted away."
OMG........in the midst of all of that pain, came this touch of precious joy.....it still makes me smile and bring tears to my eyes at the same time.
