Not sure what to say?

I had Mr. Coon in 6th grade at Mapleshade Elementary School. I remember him reading us the story of John Kennedy in PTO 109. He always had his thermos of coffee on his desk. He had a great memory. Years later he came to my lab for blood work. He remembered me. He also remembered my parents coming to open house. He was a great teacher.

Mr Coon was my World History at Birchland Park Jr High. My condolences to his family

Dear Joan, Michael and Brendan, What a life ...so many memories! I am so sorry to hear about Walter´s death. Sr. Margaret

Dear Coon family - I am sorry for your loss. I have fond memories of Mr. Coon from my junior high years at Birchland, where my dad was also a teacher.

Joan ... My deepest sympathies to you. Walter will be so well known as a kind and funny man who was never at a loss for words . He will always remembered by those who knew him and by the students who loved him. May God bless you in this difficult time. All my love, Laurie Rancitelli

Mr. Coon was my History teacher at Birchland Park Jr. High in the early 70's. His classroom was a place I felt safe and comfortable in, as well as being well taught in geography! His strength, order, and kindness remains a good memory for me of Jr. High. Thank you Mr. Coon for being a wonderful teacher.

It was sad to see that Mr. Coon passed away, I have such fond memories of him as my teacher at Birchland Park Jr. H.S. I pray that your memories give you Peace during this difficult time. God Bless!

Mr. Coon was a teacher of mine at Birchland Park Jr. High. He was a wonderful teacher! Prayers for him and his family. A long life well lived!
