Richard F.F. Werkheiser

Very sorry to learn of Mr. Werkheiser's death. Condolences to his family and friends. He was one of the best teachers that I had as a student while at Upper Perkiomen H.S. He was very knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and an outstanding science teacher. After 50 years, I still remember his use of hand-drawn, colorized, transparencies that spiced up his biology classes. The "paramecium" was my favorite one! Rest in Peace, my former teacher and coach! Bob Brand, UPHS class of 1965

So very sorry for your loss. Prayers to all..They dont have many teachers like him anymore RIP

Coach Werkheiser was a one of my first mentors. He always took the time to teach while he was coaching. He is one of the reasons I got into the fitness industry. I will always be grateful for his time and patience. RIP Coach

Great teacher, I loved his science classes! RIP.
