I knew Mr. Watson from Classical High, I graduated Class of 1984. Recently my year book was damaged and had to be disposed of.

Gary was one of the best educators I came in contact with during my years in the Springfield Public Schools. He was thoughtful, fair and considerate to all of us kids. He had such a personal touch that after 35 years has not ever been forgotten. Godspeed.
