Jack O'Conner, Union Hill High School (Union City High School) English Teacher, Passes Away.

My High School English teacher Mr. Jack O'Conner (born May 25th, 1954, died July 16th, 2010) passed away. He taught at Union Hill High School, in Union City, New Jersey and later at the new combined Union Hill and Emerson High School, aptly named Union City High School. He helped me so very much during my High School years and never gave up on me, even when I gave up on myself. I am the writer and author that I am today because of his patience and kind words. I shall miss my old friend and mentor, a true man, a true friend, May He Rest In Peace / En Paz Descanse. // This article was written about him in the Cliffview Pilot by Mr. Jerry DeMarco (and it mentions me and other of his former students in it) you can read it by clicking on this link  http://www.cliffviewpilot.com/hudson/1487-services-for-jack-oconnor-popular-union-city-educator
