“A poem begins with a lump in the throat; a homesickness or a love sickness. It is a reaching-out toward expression; an effort to find fulfillment. A complete poem is one where an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.” - Robert Frost

Kat Susie, this is wonderful I was crying not even half way through the wonderful to tribute to a wonderful lady whom I have never met but after reading her obit and reading your story of her I feel like she's a great lady and she will be missed not only by her community and schools where she taught but also by her loving sister, family and friends. God bless you and remember God's love is there to help you through this time of loss and deepest pain.
