I graduated in '87 and Mr. Block was my history teacher. I still remember when he handed back our first essay test and told us no one had ever taught us to write an essay and he spent the next week teaching us and then retested us. I had 2 articles published and went to the Illinois State History fair with his encouragement. He never just taught history, he taught his students. My career as an educator and writer is due to his him, the lessons he taught and the encouragement he provided. He truly is someone who gave of his gifts and talents. My sympathies to your family.
