“The true testament to Suminder’s impact is that although I never witnessed him teach a single lesson (class), I knew all about his teaching,” teacher Harman Pandher said in a Facebook post.
“Suminder’s students loved him and he loved them — even more than mathematics — and they would often talk about what a positive influence he had on their lives.”
Friends have created a GoFundMe page that hopes to raise $10,000 to create a legacy award in his name.
A vigil will be held on Saturday at Tamanawis Secondary.
