I am sorry to hear of your loss. I am the daughter of Frank Charapata. Now there is one more teacher in heaven.

Mr. Effinger was one of my favorite teachers at West Division! You could always talk to him, which in my opinion always made a better teacher. He was always so patient, and a very kind man.
