Cliff Kirschner

Nancy and kara I am so sorry to hear about cliff.he is in a better place.take care.u are in my prayers

Cliff was an incredible human being that never ceased to amaze me with his talents and knowledge. I first came to know him when I started teaching at Shaler Area in 1995. We shared many good times on the canoe/camping excursions along with the guys (in no particular order: Geno, Wils, RB, Penn, Dinucci, John V, only to name a few).

A true inspiration! I followed Mr. Kirschner´s career path graduating from Edinboro University and teaching art/coaching in a public school for the past 32 years. Thanks Cliff for showing me how it´s done. I hope you´re driving that green Saab Sonett III through Van Gogh landscapes!

One of the best teachers I ever had. Personable, funny and very talented. He fostered a love of art that I maintain to this day. Rest well.

Sometimes Only as we get older do we appreciate what people did for us when we were younger. Mr. Kirschner was my junior high gym teacher as well as soccer coach. He was such a positive role model and gave me the confidence to believe I could do anything.. RIP

Cliff was my favorite teacher and the reason that I'm still an artist today, almost 40 years later. He will always be remembered.

We were classmates at WMHS class of 1966. My deepest sympathy to his wife and family. May your memories of a beautiful life last forever. Regards, Susan (Varacalli) Venditti
