I received sad news today. Rather my kids, but I'm also shocked. My son's music class teacher died yesterday, one day before the school holidays begin (=today). She also used to be my oldest daughter's music teacher some years ago, and she was very active for the school orchestra.
Only last week the school orchestra went on a three day trip. For Oliver it was the first orchestra trip and he was so happy and proud about it. When I picked him up on return, Hannah, Oliver and I chatted and joked with Mrs. S.
When Hannah told me she had died, my first reaction was "That can't be, we just talked."
But it can be of course.
She was in her mid-fifties. She was still at school yesterday, and Oliver saw her at the year-end-service. Later the same day she died from a heart-attack.
We are not promised tomorrow.
