One of Mr Cotters Omega students, I am happy to share that he was a positive roll model at NHS. We called him Robo Cop because he stood for justice. He looked out for all of us and provided a chance to do better. I´m grateful for his kindness and encouragement in my life. He will be missed. My condolences to the Cotter family.
