I have fond memories of my 11th grade Government class with Mr. Zawack. He challenged his students to be critical thinkers!
I am sorry for your loss.

I am so sorry for your loss. Mr Zawack touched many lives. He´s part of the reason I decided to become a teacher later in life. He will be fondly remembered.

Richard was a cousin and the last time I saw him was about 15 years ago, when visiting his Mom. We all grew up as kids and have many childhood memories. Richard and Danny were older so my brother and I (Len) looked up to them. Even though I didn´t know Richard later on in life, hearing of his passing was hard for me. I know he was very successful and a role model for many. One of my fond memories of him was in high school I ran track at Independence and he was coach at Strongsville, and we got to play his team. Seems like yesterday in many ways. I send my best and love to the family.
