Katy Huffer left a message on February 23, 2010:
Mrs. King was one of the most thoughtful and encouraging teachers I ever had. I was a painfully shy first grader and she helped me feel more confident about myself and my abilities. She will forever be remembered in my heart as the teacher who helped foster my interest in books, something I remain passionate about to this day. The world lost not only a wonderful teacher, but a kind person and great friend as well...

Steve Klevickis left a message on February 27, 2010:
Then Almitra spoke, saying, "We would ask now of Death." And he said: You would know the secret of death. But how shall you find it unless you seek it in the heart of life? The owl whose night-bound eyes are blind unto the day cannot unveil the mystery of light. If you would indeed behold the spirit of death, open your heart wide unto the body of life. For life and death are one, even as the river and the sea are one. In the depth of your hopes and desires lies your silent knowledge of the beyond; And like seeds dreaming beneath the snow your heart dreams of spring. Trust the dreams, for in them is hidden the gate to eternity. Your fear of death is but the trembling of the shepherd when he stands before the king whose hand is to be laid upon him in honour. Is the shepherd not joyful beneath his trembling, that he shall wear the mark of the king? Yet is he not more mindful of his trembling? For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun? And what is to cease breathing, but to free the breath from its restless tides, that it may rise and expand and seek God unencumbered? Only when you drink from the river of silence shall you indeed sing. And when you have reached the mountain top, then you shall begin to climb. And when the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance. Khalil Gibran Farewell, dear sister, Steve Klevickis
Sarah Newton left a message on March 3, 2010:
Mrs. King will truly be missed. I had the honor of having Mrs. King as my first grade teacher at Boonsboro in 1990-91. Mrs. King cultivated my love for learning and lifelong interest in reading. I will always remember her love of penguins, and reading "Mr. Popper's Penguins". Many years later I happened upon Mrs. King at a rehersal for Masterworks Chorale. Her pure joy for music was so evident to all who met her and we had so much in those few brief semesters singing some great pieces. Farewell Mrs. King, may you rest in your heavenly home with the Lord by your side. Sarah (Clemens) Newton
