“You probably don’t remember me, I was one of those “troubled youths”…I just want to thank you because you were one of the few who I actually believed when they said they cared. You were a great teacher and a wonderful spirit and I have never forgotten you after all these years….thank you again.”

“I just wanted to let you know that I am happy to have found you on Facebook. I have thought about you often over the years and was sorry that we had not been able to keep in touch. I hope all has been well. I thought you might like to know that I still keep a journal presently. I always loved writing prior to meeting you but I don’t think that journaling is something I would have been as consistent about had it not been for your influence. I have always wanted to tell you that you had a profound impact on my life. I still think about the things we would talk about while I was in high school and they stood with me as I transitioned into adulthood. You helped me and supported me more than you will ever know. It has been a long time but I am happy that I finally have a chance to say thank you.”
