My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Mr. Myers was a wonderful person and he always had time to stop and talk with the students at Littlestown High School. He took wonderful care of us and the building. He will be missed by all the alumni who passed through his buildings over the years.

So sorry to hear of the loss of a wonderful person. I remember his humorous nature in the 1970's as janitor at Littlestown High School. I enjoyed many little talks with him in the hallways.
