This horrible tragedy, for both a fantastic administrator and devoted wife and mother to two young children, comes only two weeks after one of Taylor's fellow classmates died of cancer. A lot to handle for all of these young students!
There was a candlelight vigil last night for Mrs. Graesser, but Taylor was very uneasy about going. Instead, she brought flowers to the growing memorial in the school's courtyard and the kids spent much of the day with grief counselors...crying, talking, writing letters to her family and struggling through it together. Our church message yesterday was all about suffering together and that there aren't any easy answers in suffering. It couldn't have come at a better time!
She will be greatly missed, but the students and staff at VRMS will make sure she is never forgotten!
