It is with great sadness but such fond memories of a man I considered to be one of Pembroke's finest teachers. Always respected because he treated his students with repsect and taught us so much. Rest in peace Mr. Seyfried. Prayers to his family.

He was such a wonderful person and kind man. He was a fantastic teacher and taught us all so much with patience. I saw him at a Batavia Orchestra concert and he recognized me even though it had been over 12 years since he taught me 7th grade science. God watch over you and your family Mr. Seyfried. Our prayers are with your family!
