Please accept my deepest sympathy...Mrs. Scott was my Chorus teacher in junior high school, and her influence helped to guide me and many other students toward a profound interest in music. She was a dear and talented woman.

Leigh, Lynne, and John, I was saddened to learn of your mother's death. My clearest memory of her is her feeding me corned beef hash and, most especially, her sweetened corn muffins (Hmm, food's funny that way, ain't it.). I've posted Sara's obituary as a message on the East Forsyth Senior High School Class of 1979 Message Board. My best to you all.
