Mr. Eyestone was one of my science teachers back in 1976. He was an inspiring teacher and was well respected by students and staff. He had a great sense of humor. He had a way of teaching that made me want to learn more. He will certainly be missed. Please accept my condolences.

I graduated from Greendale in 1986 and had the pleasure of being in Mr. Eyestone's Chemistry class. He was such a wonderful man with a great sense of humor. He helped me to learn to love science. I will miss him.

My condolences, Mr. Eyestone was inspiring. He helped many an 'arts' student see the beauty which is science.

I am a Greendale Grad, class of 1996.

Mr. Eyestone was my Chemistry 1 & 2 teacher. He was great!!! He really pushed me. As result, I love the math and science. I taught high school math for 7 years and am now teaching at the collegiate level. He played a very important role in my success.

I will never forget how he used to "tease" me about my chipped nail polish on my fingers. One day in chem lab, he went in the back, put some acetone on a cotton swab, and showed me how easy it came off... I laughed then and now... must have been a pet peeve... but to this day, I never have chipped nail polish. :)

Mr. Eyestone was an awesome educator and will be missed. My condolences to the family. I hope you cherish the memories you have.
