Someone asked me today who my favorite teacher was when I was in high school and Mr Prindle's name came right to me. Tonight I googled his name and found that he had passed. He was my inspiration when I taught. I will always remember him fondly. My sympathies to the family.

Patty and family -
I was so sorry to read of Tony's passing. Though it has been a long time since my days in the Linton math department ('69-'72), I remember clearly Tony's love of teaching and of mathematics.

I had Mr. Prindle for calculus my senior year at Linton. I remember him as a wonderful teacher but valued him more for his gifts as a person. He was always funny, endlessly patient, and very kind. I am very sorry for your loss...I know how much he will be missed.

To the family of Anthony Prindle,
We extend our deepest sympathy to you.
Tony was one of the reasons I joined the faculty at Linton HS instead of Shaker in 1976. He was a very caring,thoughtful, intelligent person.He helped influence and mentor many people. We are deeply saddened by his loss. Cherish the memories.He was proud of his family. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Dave and I offer our sincere condolences to your family. Needless to say we were shocked and saddened to hear of Tony's passing. It has been many years since we saw Tony but Jim Nolan said he saw him recently and he appeared to be in excellent health. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
