To the family of Henry Weissenberger:
In January, 1964, I arrived in Henry Weissenberger’s Grade V class for my very first practice teaching session. I was a green but keen 20-year-old. Henry showed me the ropes, gave me the confidence to feel that I was not only fit to teach, but to do so in a tough neighbourhood like that of Mackayville. From the Fall of 1964 to the Spring of 1966, I taught Grade V at Royal Arthur School in Little Burgundy, then went back to university to complete my B.A. I have since worked at all levels of education and in various community organizations. I know where I got my start.
Your father clearly lived life to the fullest, even in very difficult circumstances.
