W.R. "Bill" Branthoover

Sorry to hear of Mr. Branthoovers passing. He was a wonderful influence on my life. I used to walk home with him during lunch and after school. He would always pass on some wisdom to me. Thank you for everything you did for me. God bless!

What an inspiration he was! Hopefully, some of us He inspired have " paid it forward !!

Mr.Branthoover was a great educator and leader...I had great respect for him and the teachers he hired to educate...and him to lead us....I am proud to say I went to school at Fairport Harding High. To his family and friends I am sorry for your loss... I will keep your family and friends in my prayers.... Peace be with You ....

Mr. Branthoover and I used to meet regularly in his office after school. One thing I can attest to is he loved his Students & he loved his Job. His ability to dole out fairness was certainly a reflection of that. I never received swats from Mr. B, but I did pick up trash around the school after classes, helped the janitors clean, and a few times just sat in a chair until Ms. Carmody cooled off.
Mr. B was greatly loved and will be greatly missed.

Thanks for being so kind to all the children especially Patrick. God bless you.

GOD BLESS THE BRANTHOOVER FAMILY. WHAT A WONDERFUL MAN HE WAS. I SAVED A LETTER HE WROTE ME IN THE LATE 50'S ALL CHILDREN SHOULD HAVE A DAD OR MENTOR JUST LIKE HIME.

Sincere sympathy to his family. June & Jack Karako

Our deepest sympathy to the Branthoover family.May God give you strength to go through this difficult time.

Mr. Branthoover is solely responsible for me completing my high school education. In my junior year I had some issues which in order to graduate with my class, I had to take both junior and senior classes my senior year which I adamantly refused. He told me he wasn't surprised at my response and he knew I couldn't do it. I was so angered at him and his statement I did it to prove to him I could, and on graduation day I made a point of telling him to his face, “I did it”, he just looked at me...
