Krispy Kreme from Ryle


I told my students the following a day after my mom passed away: During the last days of visiting my mom at the City of Hope, I purchased some Krispy Kreme donuts for the nurses to thank them for all that they do.  While struggling to speak many words, one of the few things that my mom told me was to make sure to get some for the night shift crew.  The next day, Ryle said he had something for me.  This is one of the most personal gifts I've ever received in my career as a teacher.  Thank you Ry.  Ry and I have been talking about our basketball shoe collections and 90s hip hop music over the past few weeks.
