Today, Beth Tfiloh sent out the sad email below about Paul Bolenbaugh. I remember always finding Paul Bolenbaugh's classes so interesting. He was one of the few teachers who gave us the opportunity to discuss topics instead of just listening to lectures and taking notes. My son was also fortunate to take a class from him at Beth Tfiloh.
Our Beth Tfiloh community mourns the loss of retired history teacher of 58 years, Mr. Paul Bolenbaugh. As longtime friend and High School History Department Chair Mr. Joel Monroe recounts, "There is no question that Paul’s life was enriched by the students that he taught. He would be the first to tell you that one doesn’t last 58 years in a classroom unless they love it.” Mr. Bolenbaugh's love of teaching and connecting with others inspired countless students throughout the years and made a tremendous impact on the greater community.
