Apr. 16th, 2009 12:34 pmMy high school Latin teacher passed away recently.
He had been ill a long time, and apparently, I heard, had had some sort of early-onset dementia that had left him unable to remember much of anything, but I hadn't seen him since I graduated.
He was a wonderful teacher, and every class I took at him was absolutely marvelous. I still can decline a Latin noun, thanks to him. I have never had another teacher like him. So I am sorry to hear that he is gone.
