Not sure what to say?

Looking up the names I remember from GHS sad to see he passed away

I just saw this today and wanted to write a note. I remember Mr. Wild looking exactly like this photo. I graduated GHS in 1975; it's amazing that he was only a dozen years older than me; he always looked like one of us! I am so sorry for his family's loss.

I hope this isn't too late. I just saw this on a Glastonbury FB page. Mr. Wild was my teacher in CI my senior year of high school. We had to do a research paper. I did what I considered to be a poor job on the paper, and he gave me an A. I went to see him, and explained why I thought I deserved a C (sloppy source citing, too few sources, not enough analysis, etc.). He showed me a paper of a fellow student (without showing the name of course), said the kid needed a C on the paper to pass the...

I remember Mr. Klein fondly from GHS - he was such a great teacher and always willing to hear what his students had to say. We learned a lot from him and carried it on into our lives.

I was a graduate of GHS in June of 1972. Mr. Wild was my Current Issues teacher. The smile you see in this picture was what we looked at each day. Mr. Wild had a great sense of humor and a very deep knowledge of his passion for history. He will be missed.

What an unusual and enthusiastic teacher he was. He was my "homeroom" (CI) teacher my senior year (1980). He saw potential in me that I couldn't see. I didn't appreciate it then, but I have been continuously grateful since.

My thoughts are with his family and friends. I know he will always be deeply missed.

Mr Wild had wonderful energy and enthusiasm that made it a pleasure to learn from him. Class of 76.

My thoughts and prayers go out the family. Mr. Wild was such a positive inspiration for me - truly one of my most favorite teachers.
A beautiful person who made a difference in the lives of so many people during his life.
