I had Dr. Grubbs my freshman year of college and he was one of the most memorable professors I´ve had so far. He was always nice to all the students and made sure he put our needs first. I was saddened to hear the news about Dr. Grubbs. I know his legacy will continue on even though he is not with us any longer.
Rest in peace.
