Over my teaching career, I came across many amazing students but one that shines ever so brightly is our Josip. I had the honour and privilege to teach Josip in Gr. 5 at St. Michael's School. What struck me most was how easily Josip fit in with his fellow classmates and how much they respected him. That was certainly evident watching him line the kids up going to PE or greeting them at the front door of the school. Each day I received a report on the POP (probability of Precipitation) and a discussion on the latest goings on with the Calgary Flames. His infectious giggle was ever present in our classroom as was his determination to not let his physical limitations stop him from enjoying life. Over the years, I have stayed in touch with Josip and the Tomic family, following his life throughout the remainder of his schooling and into his post secondary and finally, at his work with Calgary West. I will dearly miss our chats and emails, but will cherish the memories of watching this fine young man overcome life's challenges. My prayers and thoughts are with the entire Tomic Family. You raised a truly amazing son.
