One of the few memories of my childhood. Gene Dolph was my grade school Principal in Lakewood. I watched his TV show. The one thing I remember, is the Gods Eyes he made with yarn and sticks. Over the years I occasionally make one in his memory.

Gene was a wonderful principal at Westgate Elementary where my daughters went to school - lots of energy, great ideas and humor, fine administrator. What a loss for his family, for education and for the world.
