Not sure what to say?

I was just thinking about how Mr. Dalzell stood up and read out loud a paper I had wrote was very good, he was the first teacher who had complimented me on my work, it really ment the world to me.

Mr. Dalzell was student teaching at McGregor during 8th grade. He made a positive impact with his wit and respect for all. He was the cool teacher, making learning cool, too. You all have my condolences.

Will value his gift of friendship.

I remember Mr Dalzell as being a sweet and delightful person, always with a big smile on his face. My condolences.

I am so sorry to hear about Richards death, he was always so nice whenever I would see him dropping Kat off for a play date with Leslie or at Central High School were I went to school. Your family was truly Blessed! My Condolences to Deidra and Leslie and the rest of the family.

What an incredible honor it was to be a neighbor, a friend and fellow teacher. Rick was such a source of inspiration. He had common sense, empathy, and great intelligence. Deidre and Leslie, you were blessed to have parents who were so well-matched, who shared a quirky sense of humor, and loved you so much. We all have wonderful memories.

Dear Deidre and Leslie, I am so sorry for your loss. As a child I enjoyed spending time with your family. It was so inviting & fun.

That smile that lit up a room.

Mr Dalzell was a wonderful teacher when I was in high school at BCC. He truly cared about his students. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family during this time.
