Donald Trump

Mr. Trump was my 5th grade teacher at Washington elementary in 1963. I am 72 now and I still have his obit pic on my phone. I tell people that Donald Trump was my 5th grade teacher. Always get a rise out of them. He honestly had a more positive impact on my life than my father. I still use his expression of "dollars to donuts" anytime I can as a tip of the cap to the real Donald Trump!

Mr. Donald Trump was my 5th AND 6th grade teacher at Shoemaker school. Whenever asked who´s my favorite teacher ( password question usually) the answer is always the same, Mr. Trump, Mr. Donald Trump. When I tell people now or even over the last 40 plus years that I had a Teacher named Donald Trump, they think I´m kidding. He was a wonderful teacher! He has had such an impact on my life. He really cared. He passionately cared! (hence, the chalk throwing) He had such Energy and Charisma....

I substitute teach now that I have retired from my job. I keep Mr. Trump's obit photo in my phone. Can not tell you how many times I have said to my students that Donald Trump was my 5th grade teacher. After the shrieks die down, I show them the pic of, to me, who is the real Donald Trump in my life. I also tell them that he was a great man and the most influential adult male in my life growing up. All true! Jeff Metz, Hamburg, PA

Mr. Trump was a great 6th grade teacher. I wrote the first of many research papers that year. I knew him to be a proud veteran and a very caring teacher.

RIP Mr Trump I wish there were more teachers like you in the world.

My life was changed my last day of 5th grade; so I thought……
As I opened my report card and the letter stating who I was going to have for my 6th grade teacher, the following year, my little hands trembled and a tears fell down my face as I read the name; Mr. Donald Trump. My mind raced with thoughts fear for the rumors that circled through the school pods… The push-ups! The chalk throwing! The solider standing! …..what was I going to do? How was I going to survive?
Summer came and...

You were my 6th grade teacher. I always remember you throwing a football with us during recess. I have fond memories of you.

Trump Family, I am so sorry for your loss. Mr. Trump was my teacher at shoemaker school, I thought of him many times over the years and the great influence as a teacher and man he was on so many of us. He was tough yet kind and I will never forget that great smile of his. God has another angel with him now. RIP Mr. Trump

Rest in peace Mr Trump. You were my favorite teacher. I will never forget you!!!
