Tom -
I am so sorry for your loss. I think of you often and I know everyone at the school misses you. You are strong and you will get through this but it will no doubt be difficult. I'm sure your friends, fellow teachers and students will be here for you - call on them(me) when you need them. I know I want to help, I'm sure we all do.

With deepest sympathy,
Sabrina
