I remember Mr Krotzer from my years at North Allegheny. Reading back through his obituary, there is one attribute missing:
He was a very kind person.
I treasure the opportunity to meet him again at the Northmont Brothers Club. His face lit up when he recognized me. I listened carefully as he spoke of myself and siblings. We shared memories of other teachers and classmates.
