My condolences to the family. Maurice was principal at Margaret Avenue many years ago during several years of my teaching. A true professional and a wonderful gentleman.

Deeply saddened to learn of Maurice's passing. He was my principal at old HPS and was kind, gentle, fair, and loved a little fun. He actually walked with us outside on yard duty just to form bonds with staff and students. My sympathies to his family and blessings always. He had a life well-lived and will be remembered.
