Abstract

We learned recently of the death last year of Robert Tweed, and recalled an article about him written by Mickey Dove in 2000 for issue # 10 of this Newsletter. As an English teacher at West Leyden High School in Northlake IL and at nearby Elmhurst College, he was once asked to provide a model memoir of someone important to him. Here are some excerpts from that memoir, which expresses ideas that many of us will find eloquent and personally meaningful.
