Maureen Downey’s wonderful tribute to Ms. Daniel has been reprinted today even larger on the editorial page of the print edition of the AJC.

She was amazing both inside and outside the classroom, for sure. Over the years she came to several of my daughter’s dance performances! On a weekend!

Ms. Daniel was a special person. My daughter, like so many of her present and former students, was devestated by her death. The memorial was a beautiful tribute to her life; the thing that struck me was how many of her kids (and they were all “hers!”) said she told them they were special, that they had potential and that she believed in them – and then they lived up to her expectations. I don’t think there was a student she ever wrote off as a hopeless cause because she saw hope and potential in every single one of them.

That was a tremendously moving and eloquent tribute. Even this naturally cynical snarkhead shed a tear or two reading it. Words may sometimes seem cheap, but in times like this they can also be comforting. I hope that the outpouring of love for Ms. Daniel will bring some of that much needed comfort to her family and friends.
