Well, what can I possibly say. I never had the opportunity to enjoy any of Mr. Rom's English classes. Every student and teachers that knew him, could only tell me how great this teacher was and will always be to all. I'm sure everyone he spoked to will always have him in their heart because he deserves it and they are all very thankful for giving them a little of everything that he knew. I know that he has now gone to a better life.....we'll all miss you!

Mr.Rom, although I only had you for one week in freshmen year, and my schedule was changed, I already knew from the first time I saw you, you were a teacher that no student will ever forget. I knew from the first time I saw you that you mean more than just a teacher for students. Although you're not with us anymore, it is not a loss. Instead of us losing a person we all love, we also gained. We gained another guardian angel. We will miss you, Mr.Rom!

I never had Mr. Rom as a teacher, but he was always helpful to anybody that asked for help. He was a great teacher and he'll be missed by many of his colleagues and students.
