Not sure what to say?

Sorry to hear about Mr. Jensen - he was a fair and even-handed individual who made District 96 the great school system it is.

He will be greatly missed.

Dear Adelle, Scott, Lizzy and Mark,
We are so sorry to here about Kip. It has been a long and very rough journey for him and his family. You are all in our thoughts and prayers and we pray that Kippy is at peace now. He will certainly be missed! Our thoughts and love to all of you and everyone else.
Love,
Tim, Liz, Colleen, Maggie, Bridget and timmy

It seems like we never filled the void created when Kip left District 96. His passion for life, his work and most importantly, the students and their families was inspiring to all. We will keep you and your family in our thoughts and prayers.

We had fun golfing together. We will miss you.

You were a wonderful person to work for and I am glad I was able to have the opportunity to do so. The last few years not having you around the District 96 has been very sad. You will be greatly missed by everyone. May you rest in peace.

I have fond memories of playing basketball with Kip, working with him at Hauser JHS in the science and computer labs, and at Tony's bachelor party in Wisconsin.

Farewell Kip and God's speed. Rest in Peace.

Kip, you were an inspiration to us all. Your work ethic was unsurpassed, and your zest for life was inspirational! I will never forget you. Adele, I will keep you and your family in my prayers.
