I remember Mr. Forte as the Principal of Mystic School and how we taught to be polite, honest and do the best we could at school. We all looked up to him as we thought he was so old but now looking back, he must of been in his 30's when he was the Principal. Our sympathy to his family.

Mr. Forte was our principal at the Mystic School, someone we greatly respected and admired. When the 6th grade boys broke a school window playing baseball after school, he taught us a new word -- "confiscate". Then he took our baseball. He was our "leader".
