Dear Friends and Schoolmates,
There is even more sad news today.
From David Whitley ('67) of VA - 05/09/05:
... As if the last week or so hasn't
been overflowing with "passings-away" (is that a real word? if not, I think it
should
be, don't you?), I just received word of my old ex-art teacher's demise. Yep,
Norman Dehart died of a heart attack last
Saturday, according to a friend of mine here...... I would ask about Mr.
Dehart occasionally. Anyway, it is sorta sad
for me, as I really admired Mr. Dehart....
Thank you so much, David. I really appreciate your bringing this to my attention.
You have our sympathies. The death of a favorite teacher seems to be difficult to bear, and in a category all its own.

From Albert Dorner ('66) of VA - 05/10/05:
It is truly sad to hear
about Norman Dehart. He and I taught art together at both Denbigh and Dozier. He
was
one of the most really genuine people I've ever worked with.
Thank you, Albert.
