Mr. Bender (always Mr. Bender) was a fellow teacher at Franklin H. S. He was funny, dedicated and hard-working - a pleasure to know. He also taught my son math - my son said he was the best math teacher he ever had - he was strict but helpful, making the students feel confident in their skills. I will always think of Mr. Bender with a smile.
My condolences to his family.

I also had the pleasure of having Mr Bender as my math teacher at Franklin HS in the 80s. He made such an impact on me, I always wanted to track him down so I could let him know what he meant to me. He was gruff on the outside but a total teddy bear and really cared about his students. He will be missed! Condolences to his family.

Mr. Bender,
I had the pleasure of having you as a substitute and working alongside you in the classroom. You were one of the kindest guys I ever met. Thank you for your service over the years as you have touched the lives of hundreds of people in a positive way.
