Not sure what to say?

I was very blessed to be one of Mr. Krach's students. May he rest in peace.

Mr. Krach was at my confirmation class reunion in 2009, he was still the same witty and caring man I knew as my teacher so many years ago (class of 1970) he greeted everyone by name and considering how many students he has seen come and go during his 40 years at Holy Cross showed us all how much his students meant to him. My prayers to his family.

Probably no one viewing this will know me, but I just had to make a comment. I have pleasant memories from refereeing many basketball games at Holy Cross for many years and had the pleasure of knowing George. Condolences to the Krach family.

Outside of my family, "Mr. Krach" was the most influential person in my young elementary school years. He was my teacher (2 years), first choir director (3 years), basketball coach (6 years), softball coach (3 years), football coach (3 years). He instilled a sense of self-confidence in me, and gave me so very many opportunities to develop leadership, trustworthiness, and a sense of capacity and responsibility. My 15 minute phone conversation with him back in March will always remain...

Many good memories of Mr. Krach as a teacher,coach and principal. God's blessings for his family in their time of sorrow.
