From the funeral home guest book:
March 16, 2012
Mrs. Higginbotham was such an inspiration to me during my days at Eastern. I did my Student Teaching with her in 1966. It amazed me the excitement she could incite in the children as we pushed the piano up and down the halls in the Irvine elementary schools. She was a special person.

Rhoda Higginbotham was the single most influential person in helping me to understand classroom management and the finer points of choral music education. Her passion for teaching and the love she exhibited was amazing!

In loving memory of an amazing, inspiring teacher who made a difference in so many lives. My years at Model were that much brighter and happier as a result of her tireless musicianship and leadership. I carry lessons and techniques gleaned from her musical direction with me to this day--not to mention the many friendships cemented in her exciting and uplifting choirroom.

I was a neighbor to Rhoda Ann as we grew up in Irvine, KY. I did my student teaching under Rhoda Ann at Model School at Eastern KY University.
Her legacy lives on through her student teachers, and the many students she taught in school.

TO THE HIGGINBOTHAM FAMILY, WE'RE SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT RHODA AND ALL THE BAD LUCK YOU ALL HAVE HAD LATELY? I THOUGHT THE WORLD OF RHODA'S MOM AND DAD. THE FIRST CAR I EVER RODE IN WAS BOUGHT BY MY DAD FROM JOHN WINN JUST BEFORE I WAS BORN AND YOUR MOTHER WAS A GREAT TEACHER! SHE CARED ABOUT THE STUDENTS A LOT MORE THAN THE PAY-CHECK SHE GOT EACH MONTH!! OUR PRAYERS AND THOUGHTS GO OUT TO RHODA AND HER WONDERFUL FAMILY! GOD BLESS ALL OF YOU!
LOVE, RICHARD AND RUBY LYNCH
