Uncle Phil was my typing teaching in junior high school and worked in the student store under his supervision. He, along with my Uncle Dick and my dad, approved the loan for my first car when I came to...

Mr. Eubanks was an inspirational teacher. He used teaching techniques that allowed students to explore science not just memorize facts. How many of us became teachers because of his influence? Wonderful man.
