Just A Thought

Yesterday E received a letter from one of his old students who arrived at the boot camp with in the last few weeks. He enlisted after graduation and is becoming a Marine.The day before he left he called E to tell ask for our address. He did not have a lot of people to write too while he was gone and he wanted to write to him. When the letter arrived i thought it was awesome that a student of his would want to keep in contact with a teacher after graduation. It particularly warmed my hear to know that although new to instructing students (with in the last two years .. auto body tech at a local ROP program) E has made such an impression on his kids. When the letter arrived he was out on a fishing trip with another old student and his family. In fact his phone is always blowing up with a student calling asking for advise on this or that or an invitation to a fishing adventure or car show or just to hang out. I think its awesome. i think he does a good job. And I just wanted to say I am very proud of him and all that he does at work and at home.
