I came to Ohio to visit and was saddened to hear of Mr. Vance´s passing. I knew Mr. Vance from my childhood church, but never forgot my 1st day of middle school when he announced he would give an A to anyone who could recite the Preamble. Because of Schoolhouse Rock, I recited it and tell that story with pride 40 years later. I later introduced him to my husband Mike, my daughter Teran and son Marek at Salem Church of God. He impacted my life in many ways. Tracy (Maiwurm) Reyes, former student
