Of all the wonderful memories I have of Paul, two of my all time favorites are: 'syrianka' and 'the fly that died'.
I know no explanation is needed!
Much love,

With much regret, I never opted to take a foreign language from Mr. Higgins. I did, however, have him as my homeroom teacher. I fear I was the cause of many headaches and heart palpitations for the poor man, but it was never mean-spirited, mostly meant in good fun and humour! He was a kind man and will be misssed!

Mr. Higgins was one of my favorite teachers in Afton. I took 2 years of Latin and 2 years of French with him. I still remember a lot of both! I will miss him!
