Not sure what to say?

John & Jeff,
So sorry for your loss.

Mr. Slayton was a wonderful teacher. I had the pleasure of being taught by him at Jefferson High School. My condolences to his family.

Mr. Slayton was my favorite teacher of all time. I remember him reading "Casey at the bat" to us in English class at Patrick Henry Hi. I loved his sense of humor, and he was always so kind and cared about each one of us. I will never forget him and send all of his family my sympathy.
