Mr J was a professional, a gentleman and most of all a true and positive role model for our students in Windsor Locks.I worked with Mr. J for a number of years as principal of Windsor Locks Middle School. During that time, he demonstrated incredible interest and concern for all our students. He was patient,approachable, funny and respectful to each and every child he encountered. Mr. J personified what it meant to establish meaningful relationships with kids. He took his job very seriously. I will always cherish the numerous conversations we had before and after school during my bus duty. Mr J was the "real deal" and I will miss him very much. May he rest in peace. Mr. B
