Condolence From: Lynn Frost
Condolence: Anderson Family: I have been trying to locate "Mr. Anderson" for a while now, only to find out he has passed away. I know it's been a while, but please accept my condolences. He was one of my very favorite teachers at McClintock Jr High in Charlotte. I honestly don't know how much we actually learned, because we'd get him sidetracked (easy to do!) on everything but math. He was intrigued because I could talk like "Froggy" from the Little Rascals...and that my parents knew "Spanky" from the same series.

He was a fine man, plain and simple.

Blessings

Condolence: I was so sad to see the passing of my all time favorite teacher at Edneyville. He not only taught us math, he taught us life lessons. We really enjoyed those days when he talked about "the boy", Klay. This world definitely lost a bright spot. My prayers are offered for all of the family.

Condolence: Loretta and family... we are sorry for your loss. Richard was a classmate of mine at Mars Hill Elementary, Mars Hill High and Mars Hill College, as a young boy he often visited my grandmother's home with his mother Toni. We did Calculus assignments together at Mars Hill and he even visited me as a teacher when I was teaching at Enka High School. Jim spent time with Richard on the football field at MHHS and around town often. He will be missed by many with sadness of his passing.

Condolence: I loved Mr. Anderson and his stories about "the boy". He was a wonderful math teacher who shaped me into the teacher I am today. He not only taught us math but also taught us about life. I have tried to reconnect with him but couldn't locate him. Much love and prayers for you and the family. Janice Conner Class of 82
