  • Mr. Holbrow was my elementary school phys-ed teacher! I remember him fondly! He was so kind, helpful and inspiring. He had a booming voice in our Collicutt School gym, and a fantastic sense of humour. He has been on my mind all week, and I wish his family peace at this difficult time. - Posted by: Amber Fernie (Student) on: Jan 31, 2019
