id you ever have a teacher from your younger days who touched your life so deeply that you would always remember him? Fr. Felix Glowicki, SDB, was our rector in high school at Don Bosco Makati. When he passed away on Monday, May 11, 2009, a week short of his 78th birthday, many of my high-school class of 1969 friends shed tears. I could almost see their moist eyes through the computer screen as I read their messages of grief streaming through our e-group inbox. Father Felix never taught us inside the classroom. But he was our teacher in the bigger classroom that was our school campus. He was our teacher in the bigger classroom that was our world as teenagers struggling to discover ourselves in our adolescent years. The lessons he taught us are now embodied in our memories and consciousness. These are to be gleaned from the many stories of love and kindness that we now share with one another as we honor his happy memory.
