I was in his 7th grade class at Bryan Junior High. Mr. Molettiere was my favorite and most memorable teacher. He picked me and my best friend (Stephanie) up one Saturday and we went to his apartment and made chocolate chip cookies. He was the nicest person. I hope he had a good life.

Mr. Molletiere was my home room teacher and one of my favorite people at Bryan Jr High. I still remember how he would say "water" and "park". My sincere last sympathies.
