Mr. Hess deserved a better student than me. I was a hot-headed, ungrateful, ignorant kid when I walked into his classroom. He recognized that I had a bit of talent and despite my open hostility to authority and school in general, he fostered that talent. I never got the chance to apologize to him for how ungrateful I was for his help and all of the work he put into all of us. I hope somehow these words find there way to him, or those who loved him. He was the best teacher I ever had, and despite pursuing art in college and professionally, the techniques he taught me are still the ones I use most today. More importantly he taught me that if you put positivity out into the world, even if it goes unrecognized at the time, it can still have an enormous impact. People celebrate athletes and movie stars endlessly despite many of them being awful people. They should celebrate Paul Hess and others like him, he was a great man.
