Russ Beaulieu was the wonderful teacher. I was lucky to have him as a teacher in my freshman year at HHS. He was always there for all his students if they needed extra help or advise. He will be missed by all who knew him. May he rest in peace with the love his life, Barb.

Amy please accept my deepest condolence. I'll always remember Mr. Beaulieu as my teacher, Soccer Coach, and him and I going in the woods to dig up evergreen tree's. I will always consider Beaulieu a good friend and I will never forget him. Your parents were good people.

Mr. Beaulieu was the only staff member who tried to keep me in school. After meeting my father he realized that it was impossible for me to continue. He offered to help me with clothing and any support he could find for me. Thanks to his acknowledgment I'd just like to tell his family that I went on and received my GED and sent myself to trade school. I don't think I'd have done this without knowing there was one person who cared to find out the truth about my truancy. May he rest in peace!

Mr. Beaulieu also came to "every" high school reunion. Often times, he was the only Teacher there. It was always heartwarming to see him and to exchange pleasantries. Our deepest...

We are so sorry for your loss. Russ was a remarkable man. It was good you were able to be with him during his final moments. You are all in our thoughts and prayers.

I, too, would like to pay tribute to Russ Beaulieu - one of the finest teachers to ever walk the halls of Hightstown High School. As a colleague I can say with certainty, his scholarship was outstanding. (I smile when I think of walking into his office - where the walls were lined with books, some stacked and tumbled onto the floors, so that finding a place to sit was nearly impossible. It felt like a wing of the school library (the influence, no doubt of Keller, Lelezi and the...

Russ Beaulieu was the best teacher. He had humor and imagination in his teaching bag of tricks, such that he was loved by all his students. I feel lucky to have been a student of his.
