Not sure what to say?

Dr. Stockard was my history professor at SUNO. I admired him as a teacher and man. He used to tell us you don´t need to eat three meals a day. Just eat breakfast and a small plate of food for dinner. He was a good shape back in 1990. I´ll never forget him and I´m sorry for your loss.

Without Russell I wouldn't have received my Master's Degree- his vast collection of sports memorabilia made my master's thesis an enjoyable reality. It was such a joy listening to his stories while putting it together. Thanks Mr. Stockard for making me smarter!

His story was History and I am forever grateful to have known him. To his family I say Remember, Rejoice and be Comforted.
