Mr. Redeker was a great economics teacher, I owe him for and am grateful for his amazing insight into economics, and history.  And while he didn't think I was applying myself in classes during history, I did during my finals!  Problem was, he had competition --I had two other history-loving teachers, my best friend and my father! :)

I am sorry to hear he passed. 

Mr. Redeker was a fine teacher at Prospect High School. He also had an incredibly wonderful and dry sense of humor.  Sorry for your loss.

Of all my high school teachers, I remember Mr. Redeker the best.  He challenged me in ways that other high school teachers didn't, for which I have always been grateful. I am so sorry to hear of his passing and send you my deepest condolences.

I am so sorry to hear of your father's passing.  I will always have fond memories of both him and your mother from all of our cruises and tours.  They will both live forever in my heart.

So sorry to learn of your father's passing.  I remember him playing with giant Max.  Oh, and the dinners with Alain and your mother!  Your mother was a mentor and good friend.

It was a pleasure knowing Mr. Redeker the last couple of months.  He was such a smart man and loved his family so much.  I will be thinking of your family at this difficult time.

Am so sorry to hear of your loss.  Mr. Redeker was one of my best teachers at Prospect High School, teaching us how to determine the impact of world events on the stock market (69?). He made a difference!   I'm sure you have wonderful memories to sustain you through this difficult time.

Mr. Redeker was one of the debate coaches at PHS when I was there (my dad was one of the others).  I have fond memories of Mr. Redeker: his sense of humor (quite dry), his spontaneity (always surprising), and his knowledge about economic trends and history.  I'm thinking of all his family during what must be a very difficult time.

Ann and Steve hope you are doing well.  You are both too young to have to deal with this.  We are glad you gave us the opportunity to share Mr. Redeker's last few months with your family.  I already miss talking to him each day.  All of you will be missed!!
Love,
Claudia at JWV

I had Mr. Redeker for US History at PHS in 1968. I still remember some of his lectures and "reenactments". He was a great teacher and I thoroughly enjoyed his class. My sympathies to all of his family and friends.

My sympathy to you.  We have so many good memories of times with your folks. I know our children benefited from John's guidance in Debate too. Always, Randy and Polly Knudsen

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
