It's been two weeks and Richard's death still seems unreal. It's like he's just gone shopping and will be back anytime.
Many former students came to the funeral home. Many have sent cards. So many told me that he influenced them to become teachers.
One former student who is now a teacher wrote:
"My deepest sympathies and prayers for the Krone family. Mr. Krone was one of the most influential men I have known, and is the reason why I pursued a career in education. I try to remember the life lessons he taught us, along with the school lessons. He will be missed, and will never be forgotten. My wife and I send our deepest condolences and prayers to the family and friends. "
These students/teachers are Richard's legacy.
