Mr. Mohr was my Ag
Teacher from 1966 to 1970. He was a great teacher. His AG and shop classes were my favorite.

Today I was reminded of the saying, "A cousin is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost". I will always remember our family outings with the Mohrs and I am confidant we will meet again.
