Stranahan high school class of 1974 remembers teacher B D Kolb. He was my American history teacher for 10th grade. Excellent teacher and I have him to thank for my life long interest in history. class of 1974

What a very unique teacher B.D. was and in this day in age of teaching, one would be hard pressed to find an individual that was able to connect to his students and make it fun.

We all experience certain things in life that we never will forget and one of those for me was when we played cards with BD (A. Braman, M. Zacary,D.Tompkins and myself) no one actually won, however it was a heck of a time, one that I will always remember.

It was great to see BD at our 30th...

We all loved B.D. Kolb. He connected with the kids he taught, and found ways of teaching that were outside of the norm and that inspired us. He was humorous and unique. More than anything, he exposed us to different experiences than we received from any other teacher. He made it fun to learn about life and the subject at hand. We will always miss Mr. Kolb and forever remember him fondly and with great gratitude. Thank you Bruce David Kolb.

Thanks Mr Kolb, I was a student of yours at Stranahan in 1980, your class was a great learning experience and your unique personality made that class the one everybody loved to go too!! God rest your heaven bound soul.
