Hope I uploaded this photo correctly. Mr. Ryder was our math teacher in 1957. This picture was taken from my senior yearbook. I finally understood what it was all about.

I LOVED Mr. Ryder! He was my favorite teacher at Rockland High School, in Rockland, Massachusetts. He taught Math in our school in 1957. Everyone loved him! I shall inform my classmates of his passing of over 4 years ago. Thank you for the "In Memoriam" that appeared in the Globe today. I recognized him right away even though it's been over 65 years since I last saw him. We plan to have our 65th reunion in September.

Dear Gretchen,
We were so sorry to hear about the unexpected passing of your dad. We enjoyed meeting him and talking to him on several occasions during the years while the kids were growing up. He always had a ready smile and an interesting story! You and your family are in out thoughts and prayers at this time. We will see you on Friday.
Love,
Liz and Jack
