They're two of the best teachers that I've ever had. They've both brought so much character and passion for their subject into their classes. I pretty much remember all of my teachers, but I'll also remember their classes - that shows that they really put some effort in there. The fact that I remember a lot really just proves how much they loved their respective subjects.
I got them both presents and wrote them both page-long letters, but it doesn't seem adequate enough for how awesome they made my freshman year. A little naive freshman getting two classes taught by two of the best teachers in this school. Sure, I hated the work and how their tests and project due dates always coincided, but I loved the classes. It sounds stupid, but looking back on it, it seems magical.
Mr. Sloan was always one to talk about Mrs. Foss, and whenever we brought it up in her class, she always just sort of chuckled and brushed it off. It's hard to imagine them as a couple, but I'm sure their seemingly clashing personalities intermingle in entertaining ways.
I'll be sad when I come back to visit Cal and they aren't here...
Read about them in The Contra Costa Times!"And the rest was history. And English." Best Sloan quote ever!

On an semi off-note, I wonder if they have a couple name, and what that would be. Like Brangelina and the like? I feel like Robarb would be funny (like rhubarb?). Or Robara sounds cool too. Barbert just sounds ridiculous.
