John G. Bierfeldt Sr.

John,
You will always be remembered and thought of often. We will miss you!

To the Bierfeldt Family,
I am truly sorry to hear about your loss. I was a student at Sullivan Middle School and was lucky to have Mr. Bierfeldt as a principle. A great motivator, mentor, advisor, and a wonderful person who touched the lives of so many people. He will be truly missed! May God bless his soul and give all of you strength during this difficult time. Although he is no longer with us, the memories of his good deeds, great character, and an ever-smiling face will always...

To Mary and family--so many folks have expressed that John was an incredible principal and teacher. My sons and I will second that. He encouraged my sons when others didn't see the good in them--what greater legacy can a man have than to have been in a kid's corner when he was 12 or 13? The Worcester Public Schools was truly blessed to have had John for so many years.

To The Bierfeldt Family -
My son & I want to express how wonderful John has been as a teacher, friend & mentor at STB. Although we only met John this year he will forever be in our hearts. His dedication, intensity, and passion will be greatly missed.
"When I come to the end of the road and the sun has set for me, I want no rites in a gloom-filled room. Why cry for a soul set free? Miss me a little - but not too long And not with your head bowed low. Remember the love that we...

Dear Mary and family,
My deepest sympathy for your loss. Mary we have not been in touch in many years, and I have never met your husband or children. I wish this were different since I know in my heart that I would have been enriched by the experience.I know that John must have been a truly wonderful man.
Please remember that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Sincerely,
Hattie Reilly Good

To the Bierfeldt Family,
I am sorry for your loss. I enjoyed working with John at Sullivan Middle School. He touched my life. I shall remember you in my prayers.

When I was in the 8th grade, Mr. Bierfeldt assumed the position of principal at Sullivan Middle. As has been reflected in so many of the other comments in this guest book, he was truly passionate about his profession, an all too rare exception ot the rule. His dedication, not just ot being an educator, but to the growth and nurturing of his students in general is an example that ought to be followed by all in his profession.

My best example of this came about five years later,...
