Dear Professor Shakel,
I took your Geology class at PCC, and went on a fast weekend tour to Los Angeles, w/4 other students. I will never forget the mud volcanoes in the Salton Sea. I learned so much, you made Geology fun to learn.
May you rest in peace!

You instructed me...it took me awhile to figure out your sarcastic humor and found insight and compassion along the way..
