Not sure what to say?

I was most privileged to study with Elson Harmon while he taught at St. Louis Country Day School in the late 1970's. He was a marvelous teacher and scholar, and I'm deeply grateful to have profited from his erudition, humanity, and love of literature, language, and learning.

THANKFUL THAT ELSON AVOIDED A LONG ILLNESS, BUT WE SHALL MISS HIM AT FAMILY GATHERINGS. ON OUR WEDDING TRIP IN 1962, HE DROVE US TO THE HERSHEY FACTORY IN PENNSYLVANIA.
