BRIAN STAPLETON

Brian was a great mate when we taught together in North Queensland in the 60s. He had an honesty,a humility, a goodness and a fun streak that endeared him to all who met and knew him. There´s a huge flood in North Qld today. That happened last in 1967. Stapo disappeared for a week to rescue and help people in distress. He was that sort of person. It was a long time ago but I count my friendship with Stapo amongst my most treasured memories. Thankyou, Stapo, a man amongst men....

My deepest condolences to you Jacqueline and Brian's family. He was such a kind man with a lovely sense of humor. He will be missed. Mona Tyndall

Jackie. We are so sorry to learn of Brian´s passing. Our sincere condolences to you and his sisters and nieces. Take care of yourself.

Mr. Stapleton was my teacher at Westwood in 1990. He was a wonderful teacher whom I still talk about today! I have so many treasured memories from being in his class. My deepest condolences to his family. You will be missed but never forgotten Mr. Stapleton.

Our condolences to Mr. Stapleton's family. We were fortunate to have him as a grade 7 teacher at Westwood. Never will forget him! Hutchinson Family

I am deeply saddened to learn of Mr. Stapleton's passing. When being asked for a security question or just a question who was the one teacher you will always remember it was Mr. Stapleton-grade 7 Westwood Elem. He truly was my favorite teacher. He found the brilliance in all of his students-he saw something that they didn't see & he encouraged that brilliance to shine whether it be reading-writing-athletics-math. He promoted "To always do the right thing". My condolences to his wife, sisters...

I´m so sad to hear that Mr. Stapleton has passed on. He was a wonderful teacher. He was kind understanding and fair. All 4 of my Children had the grand privilege to be in his class they liked him so much. My condolences to the family. Thanks to this amazing teacher. Diane Bertoli(Rennie)
