Not sure what to say?

I just learned of "Mr Graham´s" death, 5 years late. I just wanted to let you know that he was my absolute favorite teacher! He was so kind and we had fun pranking each other. "Be the change you wish to see in the world." He had that quote in his classroom and I could always tell that he really tried to live by that. Now, I have a coffee cup with that quote and I think of him every time I use it. I am inspired to be more intentional to apply that to my own life. May God bless you and your...

Rita Ann, I just learned of your husband´s death. I am so sorry for you and your children. Please know you are all in my prayers! Love, Melody and the entire Abbott Family

Got to the wake, fortunately. Bob Storey, the rugby club communicator, let me know. Saw Rita first thing. I knew I was in the right place. I remember Mike´s running form: compact and efficient. He played fullback. He wasn´t any better at tackling than I was, but he could kick. And he could goal-kick! From the touch-line! And left-footed! I guess an opportunity to reminisce about rugby should not be wasted. Rugby is a place where Mike´s and my life intersected. I´m glad for that, Mike....

I am so sorry to hear of Mr Grahams passing. I was one of the many soccer players at BH that he transformed into a tennis player. He pushed me to get better and taught me how to relax and enjoy the moment. His sense of humor and love for life was contageous. I will never forget him showing up to practice with his old little wooden racket and still making us struggle to keep up. I still play tennis to this day and think of coach when i play. May you rest in peace coach.

He was a great teacher and I will never forget his fish tie.

So sorry to hear of your loss. Prayers for you all in this difficult time
