Coach Joe Brune was my English teacher at Baltimore City College High School. Blessings be upon his family and friends on his passing. He helped me to grow up and become responsible. I owe his a debt of gratitude.

It is with sadness of the passing of Prof. Joe Brune that his Baltimore City College D-13 Homeroom Class of June 1963 extends its condolences to the Brune family. Prof. Brune was a respected English instructor and MSA Lacrosse and Football coach while at City during the 1960s. He attended City Class reunions for over 65 years. Palmam Qui Meruit Ferat.
