Heather Christensen, 33, a woodwind instructor at American Fork High School...left her seat to grab the steering wheel after seeing the bus driver slump over, students and colleagues said. She was partially ejected in the rollover, and relatives said her effort to correct the course of the bus probably kept the crash from being worse.No one else was killed, most likely due to her efforts. Christensen exemplifies many of the good human qualities such as bravery, altruism, and a devotion to others. My thoughts are with her family, her friends, and her students in this time of grief. I'm glad the band will be going on with a planned concert--I'm sure she would have wanted that.
Born, like other comic book characters, out of an otherwise trivial but life-changing animal bite, the Rabid Librarian seeks out strange, useless facts, raves about real and perceived injustices, and seeks to meet her greatest challenge of all--her own life.
