Not sure what to say?

Your father and Grandfather taught me in a shop class in the 1960s. I remember to this day his precision, desire for doing things correctly and the many lessons he taught me.

Mr. Reddick was my Industrial Arts teacher at Westwood Jr. High in Gainesville, Florida back in 1968. He was great, and I will remember him always.

I am so very sorry to hear of Dalton's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Mr. Reddick was a wonderful teacher! I took shop with him at Kirby Smith. I remember when Tungoil (SP) was going strong in Brooker, and he said "Linda, you don't need any tongoil!" Guess you can say I was (and still am) a big talker. I was planning on coming to the funeral today but was sick.
When his wife was in Palm Garden, she was in the same room with my mother, Helen Harben. I understand that many of his "old" students were there, and we are "old!" I will never forget Mr....

My deepest sympathy for the loss of your father.

My deepest condolences on the passing of Dalton.

I was sad to hear of Mr. Reddick's passing. His Shop class at Kirby Smith was one of my favorites. He made it so much fun. My parents (now deceased) also knew the Reddick family. They lived a block apart in the early 1950's. Now they will be together again. May you all be comforted by your loving memories of him. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

We enjoyed knowing Mr. Reddick during his sojourn in The Woodlands, TX. He was a delightful man with fascinating stories about his long years as a teacher in Florida. We extend our deepest sympathies to Gary, Lorri, Jaclyn, John, Jeff, Kari, Gracyn, and Dalton. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. - Teresa, Tom, Daniel, Ryan, and Jun

Mr. Reddick was such a wonderful influence on the lives of so many people including all the students he had when he taught. He was the favorite of most all my classmates when he was at Kirby Smith years ago. He was so kind, wise and honest. He will live on through all of those lives he touched.
