Not sure what to say?

I remember Mr. Muir from Mifflin Middle School, when I was in the 6th grade. He taught me how to draw trees and all kinds of things like intricate spheres and alot of cool things. He brought out the artistic potential in the people he taught, who never thought they had any artistic abilities. He was a proficient artist and art teacher, he always wore classy , clothes and was one of the coolest teachers at Mifflin Middle School! I had no idea he had passed away! I now live and work in...

Joe and I were friends at West High School and have remained close for the past 35 years.

He was a special person -- and touched the lives of many people. He faced difficult struggles with dignity and grace.

He will live always in my heart.

I was also a student of Mr. Muir's art class at Mifflin Middle School. Please accept my sincere regret in the passing of your loved one.

I knew Joe from Capital when we both were studying to be teachers. What a kind, sensitive young man who could make you laugh, listened thoughtfully, and loved deeply. God bless his family and friends and may he live on in all the students he guided and mentored.

I remember Joe from our days at Capital University. He was such fun and a great friend. My sympathies to all his loved ones.

Back in our days, we called him Joe. The days of Westgate and Westmore. Joe was a member of the 1973 class of West High School. We will miss him.

Mr. Muir was my art teacher in middle school. He was always so full of life and fun. I have always remembered him and my condolences go out to the family on such a great loss.
