Nancy Thomason wrote a sympathy message

“Lady changed my life. She was my chorus teacher at Bellevue Jr High some 60 years ago. She instilled in me a sense of my worth, she inspired me to stretch beyond my shyness, and she introduced me to the wonderful world of music and singing. We continued our friendship all these years. I am forever grateful for our relationship and her influence on my life.”
