In 1972, I returned to Miami Beach High School to speak to the drama class. Afterward I asked the drama teacher        any of my English teachers are still there. Irene Roberts, he tells me, is in the class           down the hall.
I was no one special in Miss Roberts’ class — just another student who did okay work. I don’t recall any one special bit of wisdom she passed on. Yet I cannot forget her          for language, for ideas and for her students. I          now, many years later, that she is the perfect example of a          teacher. I’d like to say something to her, I say, but I don’t want to         her from a class. Nonsense, he says, she’ll be          to see you.
The drama teacher       Miss Roberts into the hallway where stands this 32-year-old man she last saw at 18. “I’m Mark Medoff,” I tell her. “You were my 12th-grade English teacher in 1958.” She       her head to one side and looks at me, as if this angle might remember me in her           And then, though armed with a message I want to     in many words, I can’t think up anything more memorable than this: “I want you to know,” I say, “you were         to me.”
And there in the hallway, this lovely woman, now nearing       age, this teacher who doesn’t remember me, begins to weep; and she encircles me in her arms.
      this moment, I begin to sense that everything I will ever know, everything I will ever pass to my students, is an inseparable part of a legacy(遗产) of our ancestors.
Irene Roberts holds me        in her arms and through her tears whispers       my cheek, “Thank you.” And then, with the briefest of looks into my forgotten face, she        back into her classroom,      to what she has done thousands of days through all the years of my       .
Looking back, maybe those were,        , just the right words to say to Irene Roberts. Maybe they are the very words I would like to speak to all those teachers through my life, the very words I would like spoken to me one day by some returning student: “I want you to know you were important to me.”
