We have certainly been blessed to have you in our lives. I first met you as a Mesilla Park student in the drafty converted barracks classroom (the last classroom with a black colored chalkboard I remember). During the year we moved to the “new” Mesilla Park School building. I think there have been two new Mesilla Park School buildings since then.
You are and always will be my favorite teacher and I have had good ones. We haven’t had much contact over the years, but I have always enjoyed the chance meetings and official ones. Thanks for making me a better person.
Hope to see you for birthday 101.
Love,
Ed Mathis
P. S. My wife Donna sends her best wishes also.
