    Dear Jan and family, I am so sorry to hear about Gary's passing - I was fortunate to have started my teaching career learning from a master of diplomacy and professionalism. He was a truly wonderful man - I am grateful for all those fun lunchtime conversations in the 2nd floor faculty room. Sending prayers and hugs, Terri Kozloski

    Dear Janet and family- I was so sorry to read of th4e passing of your husband in the local obits. You probably don't remember me. I worked and retired from the JFS Cafeteria; where I spoke with the two of you. I remember your son or sons also; when they were students there. May your husband rest in peace.
