Mrs. H will never fade from my memory when I look back to my time at Queens Intermediate. She was a second mom to all of us in the band. I don't think I ever saw her without her sweet smile. Prayers for comfort are lifted for Mr. H, Lisa, Amy and the rest of the family. Just remember, love never fades.
