This past weekend, I lost a former student to a tragic accident. This was not the first student that I had lost tragically, however, this was the first time I could not wrap my mind around it. The other students who died were sick. However, this time, a young spirit left this Earthly plane due to a car accident. I taught this young man when he was in 6th grade. He was very creative and decided to do a project by creating a video game. The only problem was that only his home computer was capable of playing the game. In order to grade his project, I had to go over to his home. So, while he was playing the game, I was sitting in his kitchen, watching him. He described what was happening throughout the game and how the characters in the game were forming the winter time constellations. It was sweet and I enjoyed his enthusiasm. Now, 6 years later he is gone. You will be missed Chris. Rest in Peace.
Love,
Mrs. M
