The passing of a legend from the Canton City Schools has just occurred.
Paul Huth was one of the best teachers I ever had.
He was so deep - he was so awesome.
He is responsible for over 1000 of the best electricians in NE Ohio, getting their start.
The Timken Company, Diebold, Hoover Republic Steel and many many more would not have had a chance, without his direction.
The homework was exhausting, the chance of getting an A on a report card was almost impossible, but the worst student of any of his classes, always scored over 90% on the state achievement tests. His graduates were recruited from all over the US - the shipyards on the coasts - Ohio Power - the Trade Unions.
In 2 years, we had the equivalent of a BS in Electrical Engineering, and put many an engineer to shame. We were embarrassments to many Journeymen coming in off the streets.
We need more dedicated people like this to inspire our children.
Rest Well "MR. HUTH" Rest Well

This fine man has inspired man young electricians in his day. I had the honor of learning from him at Timken Highschool in 1976. I have spent 33 happy years in the electrical field now. I remember him as the hardest and best teacher I ever had. God bless and thank you so much Mr. Huth.

Our family was blessed to befriend the Huths at St. Joan of Arc Church while we lived in Canton. Our visits to their home were always welcoming and enjoyable. Paul was so interested in all our activities and especially enjoyed our children. We so admired Paul for his quick mind and progressive thinking. They have been dear friends. Norma,
we keep you in our prayers and know that Paul will continue to be with us. Jeff, Tish, Kara, Alyssa and Ryan Miller

Dear Mrs. Huth,
Your were my Spanish teacher in High School, and I remember your husband. You both are fine people and I am truly sorry about Mr. Huth. Over the years I have had the opportunity to call you, and you have always made me feel welcome. I will pray for your recovery, and hope that you have had wonderful memories with Mr. Huth to draw on. You both have been fine, upstanding persons, worthy of imitation and respect. It is with great love and respect that I send sweet consolation from God above. Perhaps we can talk after all the dust dies down, I would love to serve as a source of hope and consolation for you.
With great respect,
Terry Archer
