Not sure what to say?

Mr. Greaves was an excellent Accounting teacher. When preparing any personal financial reports, I always think of his superb teaching methods. May God Bless Him.

Dear Mrs. Greaves & Family,
I am so sorry to hear of Mr Greaves passing. He was such a wonderful man. When I talk about high school , I always speak about Mr Greaves he was one of my very favorite teachers. I would call him Harry and he would call me Valorie. He bought me a candy bar everyday. I loved him to pieces as did many other students. This is a very sad day for me, My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Terry,

You know how much Harry meant to me. I once told him that other than my father he was the only other man I wanted to make proud of me. I know he was, as he always had a fondness in his heart for me. I learned a lot from him as teacher, golfer, mentor and friend. I'm truly going to miss him. With love,

I'm sorry I could not make it. You are in my thoughts.

A Farewell to Dad
I recall a funeral service that I recently attended. The eulogist stated that the letters in the person's name signify their human characteristics. With that in mind, I began to write the following: the "H" stands for Henry, but most people knew my dad as Harry. He wore many hats: son, brother, soldier, nephew,husband,brother-in-law,father,godfather to many,uncle, accountant, salesman, teacher, chairman, coach, ref, umpire, CCD teacher, camp counselor, assistant director,...

Dear Terry, Glenda and family
Please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers. Fondly, Cindy

Harry, Now you'll know "how high is high" and "how blue is blue". You were a wonderful Teacher.

My deepest sympathies to the Greaves family. Mr. Greaves was a great teacher.
