Mr Dey was by far one of my favorite teachers as a child. (ECA Class of 1985) He had a very unique technique that helped him connect to the students that many of us only realized and appreciated later in life. I didn't realize he was still in Absecon area during his final years. I would have loved to chat with him. God bless him, his family, and many students that he loved and loved him just the same. RIP my friend, and thank you!

I was at H.A. Marsh when Mr. Dey arrived in '66. Two years of History and homeroom teacher in 8th grade. What a great teacher and fantastic person! And...he was only 10 years older than us and became a first role model on how to be a good man. Had the gift of making History come alive. We have lost one of the shining lights of our collective youth. God's light, Mr. Dey, and Thank You.

So sorry to hear. My prayers and condolences to the family. "Mr. Dey" was one of my favorite teachers in junior high. He was THE primary influence in my lifelong love of American history. I can close my eyes still see him sitting on the edge of his desk and taking us back in time. I teach public speaking now and have many times referred to him when talking about connecting with your audience. Such fond, special memories.
