Dallas Historical Society Award for my father-in-law: Raj Seekri

The Dallas Historical Society has announced the recipients of the 2008 awards for Excellence in Community Service. Amongst the winners is my dear father-in-law: Raj Seekri. Here's a blurb from today's Dallas Morning News:

For Education-Teacher:

Raj Seekri. As a former teacher of mathematics at Eastfield College and as an adjunct professor at the University of Texas at Dallas, he now serves as a full-time professor of mathematics at Richland College, where he is held in highest regard by administrators, colleagues and students. As one of his many admiring students has written, "His ability to translate the difficult subject of mathematics is surpassed only by his deep and devoted love for his students."

Congratulations to Daddy. A well-deserved honor.

Here's to many more teachers who inspire us to strive for more and more.
