Since moving to New York I've been trying to get in touch with my favorite teacher from high school and I just found out that she is not here anymore. I took Pam's Honors English class. We read the American classics. She was a great teacher and a friend when I needed one. I didn't have many friends after changing schools the last two years in high school but Pam was really great and we would get lunch together. I initiated a reading program with her that involved us both reading the same book just so that we could hang out more outside of class because I really enjoyed her company and liked being around her so much. She was so smart and such a special and kind human. I wish we could of reconnected.
