From Caroline Corduff-Fotheringham. A passed pupil of Mr King.
Niall was a great teacher who not only covered the base subjects so well at our school, but introduced us to music, art and basketball, all taught with that great passion and pride he possessed. Suaimhneas siorai a mhuinteoir agus go raibh maith agat.
We have known Niall for years when he taught in Rossport N.S and was a very caring and dedicated Principal.
May he Rest in Peace.
