Our thoughts are with all those that are being affected by the loss of a Grand Blanc teacher that passed away suddenly this past week.

An emotional vigil was held on Friday evening at Grand Blanc High School in honor of the sudden passing of teacher and mentor La'Rhonda Gowdy. This was something her students wanted to do because everyone was having such a hard time with the shocking news.

Watch as family, friends, faculty and students come together to remember the teacher they described as a happy and funny person, who would play gospel and Beyonce all the time in her classroom. More than that, she adored her kids, her church and her community.
