Mr. Lindsey was an outstanding teacher who left a great impression on me. He taught me the proper way to write out a check amongst many other daily activities that helped me to become an independent individual. I have always admired him as a teacher and a person. May you rest in peace Mr. Lindsay.

This man was a great teacher!! He helped pique my interest in the law. His Penn State Nittany Lions kicked my WVU team's rear end every year while I was in High School, but he showed compassion. He had a huge impact on my life, and I cannot wait to see him in heaven. God bless him and his family.

God bless, thanks for being a good guidance counselor and not being to hard on me when I got into mischief! And you did instill in me that if you tell the truth, it's the best way. You were a good fella! You'll be missed
