Robin or back in 1981 (Miss DeMarco) - I am so sorry for your loss. I will always be eternally grateful for all that you sowed into my life at WJHS and afterwards when family circumstance moved us to Revere. I still have the stone you sent to me after my father passed on (10 days after the move). You wrote me to draw from the strength from within in order to deal with grief and deal with adjusting from being in a class of 238 in Winthrop to over 417 in Revere. Ironically, I went on to be a Lantern editor..... Creativity was also key in getting me through those turbulent years. This is my wish and prayer for you...it is ok to cry. Secondly, carry all that your mom sowed into your life and pass that gift on to your daughter and the students at WHS. Thirdly, think of your most cherished memory and you will find strength from that on the hardest of days.
