I was a member of the North Hills High School Class of 1967 and a Biology student of Mr. Molitor. I remember him as a great teacher and a terrific person. My deepest sympathy to his family.

I was a student of Mr. Molitor at North Hills in 1976. I’ve always remembered him as a very challenging and instructive teacher. He managed to bring out the best in us ninth and 10th grade kids – a truly remarkable accomplishment. My deepest sympathy and prayers go out to his wife, family and friends.

I haven't seen Hank for probably 45 years but was informed of his passing by another classmate. I went to Leetsdale Elementary and High School with him until I moved in 1956, and he was a good friend. I was so sorry to hear of his death and offer my heartfelt sympathy to his family and friends.

In the winter of 1962 at North Hills High School, I was a student in Joe Kelly's Biology class where Mr. Molitor did his student teaching. I remember him as being very young but so enthusiastic and energetic. All the people in the class liked him so much. The next fall he was back as a full-time teacher, a worthy addition to the school faculty.
