Mr Bell was a very good instructor and extremely nice guy. He was very patient with the actors like me. Thank you Mr Bell for not sending me to the principal's office every time I acted up. I still use some of the mechanical drawing techniques in my private work that he taught me in 1955 at Lincoln HS. I used those skills throughout my engineering career, even when I became a supervisor and engineering manager at US Army Research and Development Center. In fact, I drew up some plans today for my home improvement project for submission to Neptune Township NJ for approval. I used some of the techniques that Mr Bell taught me.
Mr. Bell was a distinguished graduate of Prairie View A & M University, as were some of the other teachers at Lincoln HS and Madison HS; namely, Ms Banks and Col Carrington. I chose to go to Prairie View because I saw that Prairie View graduates did well. Thank you Mr. Bell for setting a good example.
My sincere and deepest sympathies to the Bell family. Lord Bless.

JOHN 11:25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: 26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this? 27 She saith unto him, Yea, Lord: I believe that thou art the Christ, the Son of God, which should come into the world.
