I am so sorry to hear of your mother passing away Ms Dickens. You were my music teacher when I was a student at Mount Juliet Elementary in 1990-1993. I still remember your classes and have such fond memories of those times. I pray that you will find comfort in the memories that you have of your mother. For "The Lord is near to those who are broken hearted"
