I am very sorry to hear of Mr. Stankiewicz's passing. I was a student at Mohegan Elemetary before he was principal. One day he was standing in for our regular principal and the nurse was out. I ended up in the nurse's office and later in the Emergency Room with appendicitis. I remember how kind and caring he was while I was in the office. What a wonderful, caring man he was. He will be missed. Yours, Lori (Nelson) Jensen

Please accept my condolences for the passing of your husband. I was a student of his at Mohegan Elementary and was very fond of him. He always had a unique way of getting lessons across to the students and treated everyone the same, as if they were the only student in the room and it was a one-on-one lesson. I can remember coming home right before Christmas break with an ornament for the tree that he had given me. I couldn't name anything else I received that Christmas, that's how great it made me feel. I was never any good with spelling, but he helped me change that. We'd play Spelling Bee baseball in his class, I'd ask for a single (or easy word) and he'd challenge me to take a double or triple! Please know that he is resting peaceful, watching over all of the teachers in every school!

My condolences. I taught with Peter in the 70's and my sons had him for a teacher in the 80's! Peter was always so friendly and so much fun to work with. You are in my prayers.

Mrs. Stankiewicz,
I was also a student of your husband, but in 1972. As is often true of the marvelous teachers, he taught us more things then were on his syllabus. I always looked forward to his classes.

Bus trips to New York were less tedious with Peter along to talk about plays, travels and make general conversation.

Peg:
Please accept my condolences on the loss of Pete. I remember when you and he became engaged. We both worked at Dahl Oil at the time.
I also want to extend my daughter, Marie's condolences. "Mr" Stankiewicz was one of her favorite six grade teachers.

Mrs Stankiewicz,
My thoughts are with you in this sad time. I was a student of your dear husband many,many moons ago in 1973. He was in charge of our 6th grade dance. I have him in a group pic outside of Mohegan School. Ironically, I recently pulled that picture out and smiled. He touched the lives of many many people. May your family take comfort in that knowledge.
