Dick & I were colleagues a long time ago at MHS. But, we became more than that. He took me under his wing as I did some observations in his English class and "taught me the ropes" on the way to becoming a teacher. He handed me the reins as he moved on to become an administrator and my first assignment was in his room, 110. He was my mentor and my friend, as he was to so many others in our school. I last saw Dick a few months ago, after a long absence. I consider myself lucky to have reconnected with my old friend, if only briefly. I'll miss him. (I have a woodwork Santa that he gifted me with at one of my holiday parties and whenever I see that, I will think of our wonderful memories together.)
