At first I scrolled past the memorial fundraiser. Beautiful woman, lost to us too soon. It was a wedding picture featuring her beaming face. So sad I thought. Then it popped up in my feed again and again. Finally a friend mentioned her maiden name. I took a closer look. Her eyes, her smile. I was looking at the face of one of my former kindergarten students. Over 20 years had passed since her tiny body bounded into my room. Energy exuded from her small frame. She loved life. She loved school. She loved. Finding my school scrapbook, I looked at her 5 year old face splattered with freckles. I remembered her hugs. I remembered her smile. I remembered.
