I was a student of Mr. Schatzle's in Whitehall-Coplay School District. He was a nice man. The building i went to school in turned into Coplay Municipal Building and the room i was taught in by Mr Schatzle turned into Coplay Police Department where i was chief of police for 30 years. May he rest in peace ,fond memories.
