Vandaag laten we Margareta (Peggie) Price aan het woord.

The light in the Room

Hìs smile could light up a room from a mile away.
He took teasing of his “island ways” in graat stride — with that smile.

Hìs enoouragement could make his colleagues take pride in theirwork with kind words.
His kind words were always sofdy deliverred and positive.

His passion for his oountry and its chìldren was always evident.
He hoped hjs passion would make hìs country and its children better.

His laughter was genuìne and contagious. He made each of us smile in ways that were both loving and generous. He was a gentle man and a gentleman.

Quìetly courteous, he honored his colleagues and professors.
His joy of life and thirst for knowledge was admired by all around him.
We played, studied, wrote, learned, and laughed with Flaisel.
He will never be forgotten by those who shared the educative prooess with him.

We are forever changed and forever gratefulto have shared just one púece of hjs life.

I thank you dr. Zalm. God speed to your island in the heavens.
Your smile will always be imprinted on our lives.
