Memories

I remember best, my great teachers; Jerry Neff, Helen Sinsabaugh, and Dan Green. Each convinced me I could do better. I transferred to RUHS in the fall of 1938, knowing no one. Yet, the school gave me a feeling of belonging — and I treasure my friendship with many members of the Class of 1942 to this day.
(Editors note: Ted passed away August 9, 2010, in Dillingham, AK. He was 86 years old.)
