A friend of mine was killed in a horrible accident today... standing at the side of the road with friends, she was hit by a car that had veered out of control in a stupid, random, senseless quirk of fate. Three women were killed instantly. It's heartbreaking.
She was very much a mentor to me, as I have sat next to her in choir for 8+ years and tried to learn as much from her as I could.... she has been in the choir for decades. Literally.
Here is a little post I wrote once about Fran.
I'm guessing that I will probably sing with the other choir members at her funeral. It will be so hard to not see her there, and have her leading the section.
Random thoughts, which I post while I am pretending I am STILL age 39.99999! Join me for my next 40 years...

C, I'm so, so sorry. I didn't see this post until now. It's such an awful story...completely senseless. Singing at her funeral will be so hard, but a wonderful way to pay a last tribute. ((Hugs))
