Checked into Facebook for a few minutes, and this is what I found. Taught him 41 years ago. Sure made my day. Had handmade valentines for all my kids and written a poem about them. (My "creative" days)
41 years ago you made a difference in someone's life. That's what good teachers are all about. Congratulations on being the best you can be for someone else.
What goes around, comes around. You made time for him, and he's made time for you. You obviously made a deep and lasting impression on this man. What a wonderful thing, and a lovely picture to see on Facebook in the morning. Must have made you smile inside and out!
