Good morning everyone. I just wanted to take a moment this morning to pay my respects to Rebecca Wingo. Rebecca was a 1997 graduate of Ford High School in Quinlan, Texas. Quinlan is a small town which is about a half-hour east from the outskirts of Dallas, and Ford High School was my second employer in public education. I moved on to take a head-coaching job shortly after Rebecca's class graduated. Rebecca was 32 years old and leaves behind 2 young daughters. While combing through news articles online, I came across an eloquent quote from one of Rebecca's friends in the Denver Post that speaks volumes about this tragedy: "Everybody is hurting right now. She was a gentle, sweet, beautiful soul..." -Gail Riffle- Rest In Peace Rebecca.
Hard to understand why anyone would want to take out their hate and frustration in the way these lunatics do.
