I just want to say I was truly honored to have met Bobbie Hill (mi-mi) class of 1954 when I graduated from Knoxville College class of 2004, where I got a chance to meet her as a golden grad of Knoxville College. She was very inspirational to me to see that we shared the same passion for Knoxville College, and I was very delightful that she always remembered me when I came to Homecoming each year. With her lively spirit, and embracing me and bringing me into her home as if I was her own, and being so passionate about Knoxville College I just want her know that through me I will continue where she left off and continue uplift KC and contribute to the legacy of KC so that one day 50 year from now at my golden graduation ceremony I will touch someone else’s life, like she has touch mine, thank you! and my prayers go out to you Robyn and your family…
