Not sure what to say?

Mr Presley was also my English teacher at Boude Storey. He was a great teacher and I knew my grammar rules for the rest of my life. I often wondered if he hated that the rules were changed for those objects of prepositions I and me!! I think of him often.

Mr. Presley was my English teacher at Boude Storey Jr. High. Through his patient manner in explaining English grammar, I finally "caught on". Rest in Peace.

Don was one of the kindest and gentlest men I've ever known. I was pleased to know him and visit in his home several times.

Don was a dear part of my family for years. When mom left Skyline to start her private practice Don was right there to steady the ship. Don was in Rome when I was born in September 1979 & purchased my baptism dress there, I will always treasure that. Through birthdays, Weddings, Graduations and more Don was always there with us. Don was an elder in the Presbyterian church and I know he is resting well with our Heavenly Father.

Don was a very good friend of our family.We loved his kind and gentle spirit.He was a very thoughtful prison and will never be forgotten.
