Our mom's met when my sister Bronwyn and one of the Benedict kids were born. In the "olden days" they were in the hospital for a long time and made lifelong friends. I remember visiting your family and your dad taking care of our dog. Mom and Connie always kept in touch. Much sympathy to your family at your loss. Your mom was such a kind woman.

My heartfelt sympathies to the Boxler family even though I didn't know any of them except for Mr Boxler. My daughter, who is now 41, had Mr Boxler at Ritzman and thought he was the
greatest!! All I heard from her and her friends was "Mr Boxler this" and "Mr Boxler that"...when I went to parent/teacher conference I figured I was going to find some young, good looking teacher. I was shocked to find a middle aged, bow-tie-wearing, balding man. He certainly had a positive influence on my daughter and I
always enjoyed telling the story. He certainly deserves a special place in heaven. My daughter lives in Virginia but will be saddened when I tell her of his passing.
