Andrew Kuban was my Arc Welding teacher in 1959. He was a Great Teacher and demanded the best from you. It's just ashame that there aren't more teachers like Mr. Kuban.
He was the Best.

Mr. Kuban was like a grandfather to my brother and I when we were growning up. One of the best memories I have of him was when I fell down the hill by his house and hurt my leg he carried me all the way home! He was one of the nicest people I have known and he will always be missed.

Andrew Kuban was my division teacher in the mid 60's. He was an example of a fair minded man. He made contributions to many young lives during his teaching career.

Janice & Judy,
It's great that you had your dad for as long as you did. I remember your mom & dad fondly from many, many years ago. I lived across the street from you on Avenue N, and Janice and I were great friends. My name is Donna Harding but it used to be Donna Krywasz. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
