I wish I had looked him up sooner so he could have known that I respected him and remembered him and the impact he had on me, my whole life. I'm sorry for your loss. He was an amazing teacher and a great man. We are richer for having known him even for one school year, and society is poorer for having lost him.

I met Aubrey when I worked at the Pioneers Museum. He always had a sunny disposition and was an invaluable member of the volunteer staff, greeting visitors at the front desk and making them feel at home. Always the jokester, after losing his home in Mountain Shadows during the Waldo Canyon fire, he offered to sell me the burned out hulk of his Subaru dirt cheap!
You will be missed Aubrey! Rest In Peace.

Mr. West was one of my favorite teachers at Palmer High School. He helped me take two AP history tests. He had a passion for history. Which helped me to love history as well. Condolences to his family he will be greatly missed. He influenced many people through his teaching and his life.

Mr. West is the reason I got to nationals in History Day, and the reason I became a social scientist. He showed me how amazing it was to study and understand social systems, and how useful it is to have historical context for current events. He was a gifted and inspiring teacher.
