Hello Mrs. Eshelman. I'm sorry to hear about the passing of your husband. My name is Andy Porter and I'm a former student of yours at Lehman Junior High School. I was there during the 1980's which now makes me an old man. I always remembered when you taught our class, you would use sign language as well. I'm sure Mr. Eshelman is up in Heaven looking over us. On a personal note, I want to thank you for the great memories at Lehman. I will be praying for you and your family during this difficult time. Andrew Chape Porter Fort Myers, Florida
