How sadden I am at the passing of Mr. McCabe. This has truly brought me to tears. I so loved being one of his students. I had always wanted to be a math teacher because of him, too bad I couldn't pass geometry. But I did become a corporate trainer and in many ways would think about the way he taught, and how he loved us all. He and I had a ritual, I would bring him all the golf balls I could find, he would share his Dentyne cinnamon gum with me. I remember sending some with my brother to school when I was home sick (which was often), and in turn he would send the gum home with Joe. Easily Mr. McCabe was my favorite teacher.
