Robert L. Amparan

Great Man. I was lucky to have crossed paths with him professionally.

Dr. Bob as I referred to him is greatly missed

Bob was a special friend. I had the pleasure of working with him when he was principal of San Diego High and I was principal of Hoover High. I didn't learn of his passing until today. My deepest condolences to his famil.

My prayers go out to the Amparan family. Dr. Amparan was my High School Principal at SDHS from 1985-1987. He later became my friend from church. He was a very supportive Principal at SDHS.

Bob was an incredible mentor to many people. He will always be remembered for his kindness.

Bob explained to me that they had received a notice from the ed center and there was nothing they could do about it. They said I was doing an awesome job taking over another teacher's difficult classes, and that while...

Dr. Amparan was principal of San Diego High School when I worked there from 1983 to 1987. I worked in the Communications Center at SDHS, which at that time had the Television Production classes for both adults and high school students. I worked as a teaching assistant in the TV studio where where the high school students attended. I made friends with Dr. Amparan, and he always had a smile and a kind word for me. He participated frequently with our classes, hosting his own show over the...
