“My condolences to Heather’s family and friends. Heather grew up with the 1000 or so of us within 10 years of her age living about a 1/4 mile of the Murdoch’s home on Earles Lane. Heather was in my HS graduating class and although we were more like neighborhood acquaintances and school classmates from sometime since K- 3rd grade- I’d bump into her from time to time and we’d briefly chat. . the last 12 years ago. A friend she knew called me today both of us surprised with the news of her passing..”

“Cont. from last. . I think I way have some class photos from a birthday party in 3rd grade JAN 1968 Heather would have been 8, where our whole class was shot with my camera in 2 shots . I believe she was in that shot. When I get home I’ll look for it and post it. I’m about 2 hours into getting this news and Like a movie I’ve remembered about 8 different things I was either there or just talking with her that she was talking about something . . Wow. . She did have a commanding presence .”
