Dr Janet Bynon O'Brien - We Met My Former Student At The Coal Hole - London

I met my former student - Dr Janet Bynon O'Brien
at The Coal Hole in London -
Coal Cracker Friends Forever

One of the best parts of being a school teacher is meeting your former students and enjoying their successful stories. She was little Janet Bynon back in 1974 - when she was in my 7th grade Earth and Space Science Class. She was also a charter member of the one day trip to Disneyworld from Pennsylvania that I sponsored.

Janet lives near Phoenix - Arizona. She teaches at the Arizona State University. She has a PhD in Educational Psychology. She started out going to Penn State University in State College - where she met her husband - Chris O'Brien. Chris is from Pittsburgh. He was a history teacher.

We met at The Coal Hole - a pub on The Strand in London.

The O'Brien's are on a pleasure trip - visiting Oxford - Liverpool - Stonehenge - and several other British attractions. We had not met in 44 years - but old friends are the best friends.

Janet lived in Summit Hill PA while attending the Panther Valley Middle School in Lansford PA with me.

The Coal Hole is a favorite pub of mine -
it is in the Savoy Hotel on The Strand
