It was so sad. I met her family that I had heard so much about I felt like I already knew them. I talked with her husband and told him how much she meant to me and how supportive she was to me (as a teacher). He said that she cared for me too and that the last year and a half were hard to keep in touch because of her illness. It was an open casket and it was awful. It didn't look like her at all - which in a way was easier. It was only a shadow of the beautiful woman that was my friend. I ran into a bunch of former students and tried to comfort them. I felt so bad for her husband - it must have been so hard with students crawling all over the place bawling their eyes out. Tomorrow's the funeral. Think of me. Hugs needed. It's going to be hard to get through. Thank goodness dear hubby is coming with me.
