Bill Liedlich was one of my school heroes. He encouraged me to believe that going to school could be rewarding. It took nearly two-thirds of my freshman year at New Milford High School to get to that point. I'll never forget the comment he wrote on a paper I wrote, the first one I'd done that gave me a passing mark in any class that year: "Great job. Please me more, please!"
What a life for Pop-pop!

I enjoyed him, but history bored me. Oh, the irony!
