Not sure what to say?

Einstein said, "education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned in school." Mr. Spears thank you for the education. For those of us from McCosh you are legend.

RIP Cousin Sonny, you will be greatly missed!

Thank you for a Job well done. Remembered by many of us that you tried to teach some much!

Your family is in my prayers, he was a father figure to me and I will cherish the memories.

Michael sorry for your loss. We have lost a legend of our times. Uncle Spears as we called him represented A man of great character. He also made me laugh with his witty jokes. My mother Novella Bass and aunt Tommie Bass loved him dearly. Fisk has lost another son. We will truly miss him.

One of the great teachers of McCosh. Only a very few left from my times there, 1950-59. You will be missed. I guess most of his students are now at that top rung of the ladder.

Dr. Spears was like a member of our family. We love him, and will miss him dearly.

As a former student, Dr Spears I appreciated the knowledge you bestowed on me, RIP
