I was deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Mrs. Adams. As I reflect on my time in 6th grade, I can’t help but remember how much of an impact they had on me and so many of my classmates. Mrs. Adams wasn’t just a teacher; they were a guide, a mentor, and a source of encouragement. Their warmth and dedication to teaching made the classroom feel like a place of safety and inspiration. I will always remember the way she made learning enjoyable, her help, and the way she saw we were going to do great things.

Even though years have passed since I was in her class, the lessons I learned, both academically and personally, have stayed with me. Mrs. Adams had an incredible way of making us feel heard and valued, and I know I’m not alone in saying that their influence shaped who I became. They made each student feel important and capable, something I’ll always be thankful for.

May her legacy of kindness, knowledge, and compassion continue to live on through the countless students (including me) they inspired.

Ms. Adams, oh how we will all miss you. Only God knows how badly my heart stopped when I heard about your passing. I'd love to see how you would react if you realized how much honor and respect you got around the school the day after we heard about your passing. I'm sure everyone will miss you. But always remember death is a part of everyone's life.

I was one of Mrs. Adams’ students at Aurora Quest. Even today, so much time later, I miss her so much and I always think about her and how she changed my life for the better in so many ways. She was such a great teacher and person. Life at quest isn’t the same without her. I wish I could talk to her one more time. I can’t imagine how her family feels if just one of her students feels like this. I hope her family is doing better and that we can all look back on the good times we had with her.

She was the best teacher I ever had and I even wrote a song for her. My name is Nick O'Muireadhaigh. I was her 6th-grade literacy student. I cry myself to sleep each night thinking of her. I miss her so much.  I don't usually share my emotions like this, but for Mrs. Adams, I can't stand by and not share her memory with the world. She will always and forever be missed and in my heart. In my head, I create realities in which she is still here, even though I know she isn't. Even though the next thing I say is going to be really hard, I think it's time that I give in to the truth of reality. Goodbye Mrs. Adams.

Mrs. Adams was a great teacher for me and many other students and I still miss her 7 months later.

Mrs. Adams was my literacy teacher, she was amazing and very kind! I miss her so much and quest is not the same without her. I ´m sorry for your loss. Mrs. Adams wherever you  are, I hope you´re doing well and flying high.  Thank you for being there for me and being the light of quest

I still miss her to this day and even though she gone she will always be in my heart there’s never a day that goes by without me thinking about her and all the fun memories we had I was one of her 6th grade student at Aurora Quest 2022-2023 I’m in 7th grade now and I write  letters to her even if she won’t receive them.Every day I talk to the 
sky, I think of the sky as if I was talking to her because I know she’s a beautiful angel I really wish she was still here with us there was only a few weeks to go in school till the end and there were fun thing in plan that she never got to experience.She will forever have a spot in my heart, and there will never be a day where I won’t forget her I think about her I wish I could’ve made more memories with her. I wish she can see me now and how up I’ve grown I know one day when I’m in eighth grade and I’m going to high school I wanna make a speech about her because she really believed in me that I would do my best in her class and I tried my best every day and I’m still trying for her now I wanna make her proud and I want her to look down on 
me and be proud of me. Mrs Adams I miss you so much and I will always will.

Kathy had a way of making you feel special. She was so much fun to be around. You just couldn’t get enough of her. Carolyn and I will miss her so much. Prayers for all that loved her. We know how unexpected and horrible this must have been.  Lori we love you and think of you as we walk through your home we bought from you. Great memories for sure were made in this great little house. 

Love , Joan and Carolyn 

Lori and family….keeping you all in my prayers.  May God wrap his strong loving arms around you today and in the days to come.  Love, Janeice Cox

Dear Lori, my heart breaks for you and all that love Kathy.  I only got to spend a little time with her and know that she was the kind of person who will be dearly missed.  May God wrap you all in His love and comfort as you go through the years ahead. 

Kathy always balanced well seeking excellence as our high school dance captain with joy and laughter of not taking it all too seriously. Those qualities seemed to stay with her over the years. I’m praying for you Mary, Nikki, Baxter in this season of loss that seems too much to bear. All your years of following our Heavenly Father are your rock to stand on. Hugs to you all. Bridget Williams Sproles

Praying for each of you during this hard time!  That the Father of all will surround you with His peace and love.  The loss has been so great this spring for your family and I pray Habakkuk 3:17-19 might be a strength and a cry for you. 
The memories of times at the Sudduth home with Kathy, Mary and David, and the Sudduths trying to corral us as a group will always be precious!  
Love, Page and Elizabeth Love Walt

Mary, Dan, Bax, and Ramsey and Mrs. Sudduth,  I am so sorry about Kathy's passing.  I have so many fun memories of Kathy growing up and spending time at your house.  She loved life and made the most of it with her family and friends.  We are praying for all of you during this difficult time.  With sympathy, Merinda and Danny Kordsmeier
