Emotional Day in Gravette

[Wendell Robinson]

Today a Gravette High School teacher was killed in a car accident just east of town on Hwy 72. She had been teaching at Gravette since 1996 and her husband was at one time a basketball coach and assistant football coach at Gravette. Her daughter had just graduated from GHS in May and she has son that is a middle schooler as well. She has literally impacted thousands of lives in her time at the school, and was personally one of the greatest teachers that I ever had, and that includes some fine military leaders and instructors that I worked for and learned from. She was just recently awarded as the National HOSA teacher of the year in Orlando, FL. I won't post too much information on the matter here out of respect for the family. However, there is a small story about it on KFSM Channel 5's website for those that want to know more.

The students at the high school and the entire town of Gravette were dealt a great blow today. Keep the students (past and present), faculty members, and most importantly her husband and 2 young children in your thoughts and prayers. Please, don't take a single day for granted.

I have heard nothing but very positive things about her and her life.  It looks like Gravette lost a huge part of their faculty.  Lots of prayers from my family to her family and the entire Gravette community.

Sometimes we take so much for granted and don't appreciate  all of the good that is around us,  things change so quickly and sometimes not for the best!  My thoughts and prayers are for this family and town!  You WILL find a way, you just have to believe!
