Not sure what to say?

He great man that loved his job and his students and loved to share his love of science to to those who loved it as much as he did. So sorry for your loss he will be missed. In his word " it's bad tuna" as he would say. Former student Dan hildebrand class of 2011

Gary LeFave will certainly be missed by a lot of people who have been a part of his life more recently, but in his career, he touched many lives. My first real teaching job began at Matignon in 1978, and every day for years I carpooled with Gary and Judy Bernard to and from school. Nowadays, new teachers are often assigned mentors, but no paid mentor could have taught me as much as Gary and Judy. Sharing a commute meant sharing many stories of our families, classes, students, colleagues,...

My son had Mr.LaFave 10 and 12 grade at Northeast he was an excellent teacher. He really cared about the kids. May he rest in piece. My condolences to his Family.

Iwas so sorry to hear this news. I have many fond memories of him at Matignon. My sincerest condolences to the whole family.

I'm terribly saddened by this news. My sincerest condolences go out to the LeFave family.

Mr. LeFave was my biology teacher at Matignon. His love of teaching and of his students was obvious to everyone. We all loved his dry sense of humor. After my attempt at dissecting a frog, he passed by and said "don't worry, he was already dead before you got ahold of him". I'm sorry for your loss. He was such a kind and wonderful man.
