I will always remember Mr. Andrews: "The" English teacher who challenged me to actually read for fun!

I was a student in Mr. Andrews' Latin class at Wintersville High, and I found him to be a gentle soul, genuinely interested in the language and the culture of ancient Rome. Condolences to his family.

Donna has know Dorothy since 1970 through St. John's Hospital. After we were married in 1978 we visited Dorothy and Tom almost every year while on vacation. Living in Minnesota, we were not able to come to the services for Tom, but our thoughts and prayers are with him and the family. God bless, Paul & Donna
