Mary,
I alway think of you and Mr. Branch.... I know I was supposed to call him by his name - but he just will always be Mr. Branch to me.
I wanted you to know that he has always been my favorite teacher. I respected him and learned a love for science...
Was sorry to hear of his death and hope you are doing well. You can always write me or call. I wish I had your address.
