it is so sad about Mr Bodin he was such a nice guy and a great vice principle the kids loved him he will be missed not only by his family and friends but also by his students, thanks Mr Bodine for leaving such a wonderful legacy and great memories
ReplyDeleteThanks Jason for posting the deatils. I was wondering if it is on a first come first seated basis? Also how many people can the gym hold? I know plenty of people will be there to honor such a great individual.
ReplyDeleteNo trouble, Zach. There will be some reserved seating for family and special guests, and all others will be first come, first seated in the gym bleachers. The main gym will hold ~800, and the second gym can hold ~600, and we will simulcast the event there. PS-no ties! Mr. Bodin hated them. See you there.
ReplyDeleteHi Mr. Leslie, it's Pia! Thank you for keeping us updated in regards to Mr. Bodin and his recent passing. I was quite fortunate to have the chance to get to know him as our basketball sponsor/ vice- principal/ coach. I had the pleasure of meeting his wife and his daughter when she used to bring us mini donuts at our games! Unfortunately, I will be out of the country and will miss his service. I recently found a piece of writing I had written in Grade 12 which was a reflection of my positive experience at our school just before graduation. I will post it on here on my blog as soon as I get the chance- a piece of writing/ gratitude to you, Mr. Bodin and the other teachers who had such great impact in our lives. Thank you and God Bless.
ReplyDeleteGreat to hear from you, Pia. I would love to read your relection post. Mr. Bodin's passing is a huge loss, and we will all remember him fondly. Take care.
