I remember Tellie from Fairview School around 1970 --- before the start of his teaching career. I was a beginning primary teacher at that time. He was such a fine man, respected by the staff and students alike. His kindness, sense of responsibility and work ethic were admired by us all. I was so pleased that he chose to go into teaching. Tellie made the world a better place. I send my condolences to his family.
