Basil Eavey

Mr. Eavey, You were instrumental in many students lives. I was one of those that had the great honor of being one of your students, Gov. Thomas Johnson H.S. Class of 1972. You will live through all of us forever.

Thank you, Mr. Eavey, for being my business teacher at Mt. Airy High School. I´m still using all the skills you taught us. Can´t imagine where I´d be without them. Love to his family.

I had Mr. Eavey for notehand in 1964-5 and drivers education in the summer of 1966. He was an excellent teacher; I was a lousy student in them. But I did use some notehand throughout high school and college, and students who wanted to borrow my notes were frustrated when they couldn't read all of them. My condolences for his family and friends, and I'll pray for them as they'll miss him.

Mr. Eavey was my business teacher at South Carroll high school and the best teacher, friend and supporter during my senior year. He will never be forgotten as a great giver and kind individual. You will be greatly missed. Blessings to the family in this great loss. God has better and greater plans for you! You will forever be loved.

Sincere condolences to the families of Mr. Eavey. His light will forever be remembered.

In the mid-sixties, when GTJHS opened, I met Basil while I was teaching art. He was a fantastic business teacher and friend over the years and following our retirement. Basil ran the bookstore and always had a fond greeting when I walked by. I knew both his second wife, Ruby Staley from Yellow Springs, and Patsy from work at school. I always enjoyed seeing and chatting with him at many retired teachers' functions. Patsy made sure I saw him. I will always keep him in my heart and God bless the...
