So here's the short of it,
So many of us will miss our friend and colleague. 

And here's the long.

Briggs Smith

There is a somber mood all around the office and at the Central Office because of the early and untimely death of our dear and generous colleague, Briggs Smith.  I know the teachers who worked in Career and Technical Education will miss him. He was always a friend to our department and to our little corner of our big department.

We'll sure miss him hanging around the 3rd floor at the end of the work day.

Briggs, may you find peace at last.
