Not sure what to say?

Mr. Sprankle changed my life is such an amazing way. In school we are writing and presenting tribute speeches and I've been writing mine about him. My fondest memories were always of him making us laugh, him reading to us and his jokes that never failed to make us smile. I have so many memories of him reading Piggy and Gerald by Mo Willems with his incredible voice impressions even though it had nothing to do with the class and the material we were learning. He was an amazing teacher. May he...

Jodi and Zoe. No words--only LOVE. Maddy, Rob and Sierra

Jody and Zoe, my heartfelt sympathy is extended you both. As a college friend and then a roommate, I have such great memories of Bob's creative passion, his enthusiastic zest for life but more so his genuine kindness. I've followed him and his beautiful art on facebook and looked forward to his daily posts. Jody, I was so touched how you championed his battle, and helped us all understand the challenges the three of you faced daily. I hope you both can take some comfort in knowing how much...

To Jodi and Zoe there are no words that can take away the pain and loss you are both feeling right now. But I do want you both to know that there a hundreds of people that have you in their hearts. Bob was the best teacher. The teacher every parent wanted their child to have. He would know how each child's mind worked and he would help them all to be the best. Thank you Bob for helping my son be his best.
