Mr. Eaton was my French teacher from 7th to 9th grade and although he annoyed me at times (because I was a teenager!!) he instilled a love of the French language that exists to this day. I studied it in college and have made many trips to France since junior high. I was surprised and pleased to read that his teaching was just a brief mention in his obituary... he led a full and happy life outside of his experience teaching ungrateful middle schoolers!! Merci, M. Eaton. Vous avez eu un grand impact sur ma vie.
I had the pleasure of having an amazing father-in-law! He helped to raise my loving husband and helped our daughter learn to read among some many other things. The world doesn’t know what it’s missing yet. Rest easy knowing you will always be remembered. Thank you so much for everything you’ve done for us. We will miss you Papa!
