Please accept my condolences on your loss. Mr. Napp served as my social studies teacher at Northwestern High School in 1971-1972. He thoroughly enjoyed teaching, he enjoyed hearing diverse points of view, and he invested his time in us, his students, so we would be able to succeed. A photograph of Mr. Napp in his classroom appears in our 1972 Northwestern High School yearbook. He will be missed.


I had Mr. Napp at Talmudical Academy over two decades ago and until this day my friends and I remember him with a certain reverence. He was remains a legend in T.A. for his intelligence, the work ethic he instilled, and the pleasure he had in seeing his students step up to bat and accomplish.

I now teach in the classroom where he taught on the third floor of T.A.s High School Building and have the pleasure of telling my own students about the great personage, Mr. Napp.

May God comfort your hearts each day during this difficult time.

Mr Napp was my homeroom and geography teacher at Pimlico Junior High School in 1963-1964. A very effective teacher and a great guy.

My sincere condolences to the Napp family on the passing of your belived father and grandfather. Mr Napp was my geography teacher in 1963 at Pimlico Jr High. Not only did he open the world up to me long before the internet, he taught me organizational skills that have helped me through my life. May his memory always be for a blessing.

I had Mr. Napp as as geography teacher at Garrison Junior High when I was in the 8th grade (1954-1955). He was an outstanding teacher, challenging yet very supportive. With fond memories of him, I send my deepest condolences to his family.

I had Mr.Napp for 8th grade geography at Pimlico Jr. High School. He was one of the very few bright lights in my three very dreary years there. I will never forget his enthusiasm for his subject and his gentlemanly approach and patience.

It has been decades since I sat in Mr. Napp's classes at Pimlico and Northwestern. His concern and humanity remain with me. Thank you kind sir.

I have such wonderful memories of "Mr. John". He was a good friend to my dad, Al Meyd. I enjoyed hearing the stories the two of them would tell about the trip they took to California when they were young men. I am so sorry for your loss.
