Mr. Ginter can't be easily described. He was my most magical teacher-- bringing cultures alive. He shared his passion about life. Personally, he somehow made my struggle with out of control excema a heroic act- turning a humiliating thing into a badge of courage. He was a gift. My condolences to his family. Debbie (Crane) Morse

Herr Ginter always brought a new and special spin to learning. I greatly enjoyed his class and I'm thankful I knew him. I will always remember Herr Ginters German class and I know he will be greatly missed.

So very sad to hear of his passing. Mr Ginter was one of my most memorable teachers. I was always proud to say I took Russian in high school; Mr Ginter made that possible. I feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to know him and learn from him.

This breaks my heart. There are teachers who make an impact on your life whom you remember forever, and Mr Ginter was one of those teachers for me. I loved this guy. He was one of my favorite teachers! I just found out about this today and I wish I'd known earlier because I most certainly would have driven down for his memorial service. He was always talking about Megan and Tobin in German class, and my condolences to both of you and your mom. RIP Herr Ginter you were one of a kind.

Without the tutelage and encouragement of this man, I would never have had the opportunity to go to Russia as a teen--by far one of the greatest experiences of my life. Ginter, I'll sing a round (or twelve) of Kalinka for you tonight.
