I'M GLAD I GOT TO TALK TO NELSON LAST YEAR. HIS PIC SHOW'S HE STILL HAD THAT [ HALF GRIN HALF SMILE. ] BOB FREY CLASS OF 51

For some reason, I don't know why, I started thinking of my jr high math teacher Mr Price. He was by far the most influential teacher I had in school. I decided to google Mr Price math teacher Flint Michigan and saw this obituary. I felt I needed to tell you all what he did for me. I was a kid that definitely fell under the radar. Not popular , few friends , very shy. Mr Price noticed me. Most importantly he noticed my math ability. He told me exactly what courses to take in high school and...

I am sorry to hear of your father's passing. I have been out of town for about 2 weeks. I wish I could have attended the service.

I just found out Mr. Price died. He was our counselor at band camp for the three years I was there. He was like one of the guys but also had all our respect. He helped us pull off some great pranks and we all brought him up over the years since then. I was always sorry I lost touch with him and his family and they have my condolences. He was the greatest of guys!

To the family of Nelson Price, you have my deepest sympathy for the death of Nelson He was a great person & teacher. I always respected him and his lovely wife Rowena whom I had the great honor of working with. You have my deepest sympathy. Agnes Gardner

Mr. Price was my Alg. teacher in the 9th grade also, I also worked for him at his Dairy Queen on north main st.at that time, It just doesn't seem possible that time is taking so many of the ones that gave my memories. Thanks Nelson and my prayers are with your love ones.

I went on in to teaching and officiating and have used Nelson's phrase over and over again to many, crediting "someone" with his words.....you should know,"I...

May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.
