Class Notes

Don Cunningham remembers his time vividly at Regis Jesuit in the Class of 1957. One of his favorite math teachers, Fr. Krieger, SJ, inspired Don so much that Don could not wait to get home from his sports to work on his homework. Fr. Krieger not only taught algebra, but also showed Don and his classmates how to learn and how to solve problems. Another favorite professor was Don's English teacher, Fr. Deeman, SJ, who was very profi cient at teaching the proper use of the English language. To this day, Don uses this knowledge to help others learn the correct conjunctions, prepositions and grammar.

Don and his wife Sally have four grandchildren who have attended Regis Jesuit— Connor '17, Ryne '18, Shannon '20 and Sean '25. It is their delight to watch their grandchildren play as athletes for Regis Jesuit. When asked why they have left Regis Jesuit in their will, Don shared "because the Jesuits always take care of students who cannot aff ord a Regis Jesuit education and do this all for the greater glory of God. AMDG!”
