My condolences to Carinne, Ron, Christoper, and Alexandra, and your extended families. You talked about Jacqueline with such love. Reading this I understand so much more. Thank you for sharing this with us.

I will never forget Madame Binda- my first dance teacher- sixty six years ago!!! May she rest in piece.

Madame Binda cemented the life long love of ballet that I carry with me today. She was beauty and grace personified and she gave a small piece of that to every student she taught. I was blessed to be one of them in the 70s. Sending condolences to Carinne and family. I will make a donation to a local studio that I support in her memory.

What a beautiful tribute to an extraordinary lady. We were so lucky for our girls to have been her students. May her memory continue to be a blessing.

I am so sorry Alexandra, Carinne - to be so blessed to have such a remarkable woman for a Mother and Grandmother. Sending love and light, Ann Derby

I loved ballet and will continue to for the rest of my life, thanks to Madame Binda. She was truly a gift to countless of us who had the honor of her teachings. (Minnieville Elementary throughout the 1970´s) Rest in peace, and thank you.

I'm sorry to hear of Madame Binda's passing. I only just learned about it. She was my ballet teacher in the third grade and again when I was in my twenties. In third grade, she called me her "little monster." I guess I was a bit unruly. She worked students very hard and we glowed when she gave out praise. I was fortunate enough to see her daughter dance. What an amazing family. Some people are unforgettable. Madame Binda was one of those in my life. Kristine H.
