Sono Harris Tribute

Sono Harris, one-half of the famed homeschool pioneer advocate couple with her husband Gregg Harris and mother of 7 "world changers," has gone to be with Jesus after a short battle with cancer! My thoughts and prayers are with her family at this difficult time. 

I can empathize, having lost Dad to cancer last year. I wonder if she sought treatment though. Here, two of her sons give tribute to her legacy: Goodbye, Mama

Mom and Dad started homeschooling back when it was illegal in most states; we had friends to go to jail for it! For many years, we homeschooled in Tennessee in secret...not even our only living grandma knew until after four years or so! The Harrises were among the few brave souls who risked everything to pave the way for legal homeschooling here in the US. 

Bless her memory!
