Dear Gagne family -
I believe that this is the Mike Gagne I taught at the former Hobbs Jr. High in Medford many years ago - in the late 50's/very early 60's. I often think of those early years I taught Ancient and Medieval History at that school and of the many wonderful young boys and girls who left a lasting impression upon me, Michael Gagne among them. I am very sorry to hear of his early passing but know that he rests in the peace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and that Our Lord has greeted Michael with open arms. He was a sweet young boy, filled with life and joy. I will remember him in my prayers for the faithful departed today, as I attend Mass here where I live. With loving sympathy to all the members of the Gagne family, Mrs. Ann B. (Drennan) Forsyth, 8025 Farmington Blvd., Germantown, TN 38138 (former Medford teacher and long-time resident)
