Sending my sincere condolences to the family and friends of Mr. Gerry Casaubon.
Mr. Casaubon was my grade 6 teacher at St. Lawrence school in 1968. I believe he was newly graduated at 24 years old and we were his first assignment. He was so young, cool and did funky die dyed art and let us have fun music and dancing! He was and always has been my favourite teacher .. first male teacher and he set the bar really high.
Fast forward several years later… now I’m 24 years old and assigned to Mr. Casaubon as my associate teacher I believe at St. Judes. We reconnected over several weeks, laughed a lot about the karma and he guided me once again through my teaching career.
A great teacher, a mentor, a truly kind caring man who made a very impactful impression on my life at such a young age. I will always remember his big welcoming smile.
May you rest in peace Mr. Casaubon - you will be missed but never forgotten .
