My grandpa was really nice, and it was sad for the whole family when he died.

To the Ryan Family,

I'm very sorry for your loss. Tad was the principal who hired me as the reading tutor at Jefferson School in 1980. He was very supportive in the early days of my 30+ year career in District 205, and I will always be grateful for that. My sympathy to his family.

Sincerely,
Barbara Scott
Orchestra Director (Retired)
