[Teachldsseminary] TEACH: Does One Righteous Person Make a Difference?

[Beth Adams]

I too want to thank you for sharing.  I used your e-mail and letter from the site in class yesterday.  I teach Juniors so they are all about 16.  The room was really quiet as they took in the significance of not only the importance of your son's life, but how they too had the opportunity to be important in some way in their own lives.  It's so true. We can have a significant impact on others on both sides of the veil.
