Our deepest sympathy to the Singleton family.
The Grubb family, Bo, Teresa and Travis
My Deepest sympathy and condolence to the family doing this time of sorrow. The Singletons were my former neighbors for many years. I pray God's grace and mercy will be a comfort to the family.
Essie helped our students to develop an appreciation for orchestras and classical music by sponsoring an annual concert at Whitcomb. Her husband would bring an orchestra from one of the middle schools to perform for us. He always taught us something to remember like syncopation, having us to do the task. Mrs. Singleton encouraged the newer teachers and worked with everyone. We will miss her from the Whitcomb Court Elementary School Family Garden.
