Missing Laningham

There’s a big article in the paper today about one of the counselor’s at West High. The article describes all the things a high school counselor does from placing students in the correct classes to encouraging them to think about the future. I couldn’t help but think of my own high school counselor Mr. Laningham. He was the greatest. He helped me so much and in so many ways it is quite possible I would not be where I am today were it not for his support. Mr. Laningham helped so many of the people in my class I'm pretty sure we all thought we the greatest.

It takes a great man to make a couple hundred 18 year-olds love him.
