Bill York was the co-operating teacher at Panther Valley High School when I was a student teacher there in 1970. Little did I realize that for most of our careers we would be members of the same science department. At the time I wished that I could become the seventh grade science teacher at Panther Valley. One must be careful what they wish for - 33 years later I retired from that position.
Many people do not know that when Bill was at Girard College and Temple University in Philadelphia he was a Golden Gloves boxer. Somehow it was remarkable because he was such a gentleman.
Bill was an excellent science teacher and an even better man. He will be missed.
