Not sure what to say?

Ken was a great teacher in Springfield !He and I had a lot of fun with my God given math abilities with numbers!He was also very fond of our class of 1966 at Springfield Mn!He will be missed by many of his former students!

Mr. Jensen was my teacher, but so much more. I remember his smile and laugh as we worked our way through 9th grade algebra. I talked to him earlier this year and thanked him for being such an important part of my childhood. Growing up in Anoka during the 70's and 80's we were lucky. There were so many good humans around to help us along the way. Mr. Jensen was absolutely one of them. I was grateful for the time I had to talk to him earlier this year. He was kind and caring always to me...

It was because of Mr. Jenson that I became a math computer science teacher. He and Mr. Swenson thought I liked people and talking too much to sit in a cubicle and do programming.
