Remembering La Von today with gratitude for her friendship and wisdom, and sending love and best wishes to her children and their families.

La Von was a very special woman, educator, mother, spouse, community member. I was fortunate enough to meet her in Mexico City where she and I both taught at the Colegio Junípero, just across the street from the American School. I learned so much from her about teaching and about life. I have fond memories of teaching six of her nine brilliant children, spending time at the Foarde home full of music and joy, and traveling with them to Acapulco. Later, I remember accompanying La Von to the telephone company when the family was getting settled in MacAllen, Texas, meeting her and Katie in Tuscaloosa where Katie was studying and I was finishing my MA, and seeing her and family once again in Manhattan, where I now live. A lifetime being touched by this remarkable friend. I still think of her and her children often, and send each of you my love and condolences.

I echo my sister Lori's sentiments. Though I don't recall meeting Evelyn while living in Mexico City I do recall vividly her children with whom I shared warm memories of Colegio Junipero. I was in the class between Tim and Mike at Juniper.

What a beautiful tribute to your mom. Judging by the wonderful character of the Foarde children that I knew in in Mexico and later met up with in Austin, she must have been a beautiful light! My prayers and blessings are with your loss at this time, but heaven's gain!

Though I never met her, I know she will be sorely missed. Her legacy is the people she raised, taught, and met - loving them and leaving them all for the better. She will be a prayer warrior in heaven for us. I am saddened for your loss and will pray for her and your family.

"Mother" (we figured she had earned the title) was a central figure to a whole generation of English speaking school-age kids in Mexico City. She touched many lives and imparted deep wisdom to those who sought her out. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to be one of her adoptees. - Ed. Larrañaga
