I was just thinking about how safe you made me feel at school for all these years. Your thundering voice echoes in the hallways of my mind- still. I watched you from my window as you, bravely and unarmed walked outside when there was a lockdown- due to an area shooter. You didn’t hesitate to put yourself in harms way for kids- and me (I felt like). Just your presence helped me to breathe lighter. Selfishly, I miss you and our talks. I could always count on you for being a bona fide, verified, recognized, certified watchman over kids. I wanted you to know how much I appreciate you! Underpaid and undervalued in education, I honor you. I salute you. xo
