Dear Professor Ha…

Posted on 18. Nov, 2009 by Online Editor in Campus

Professor Ha,

Thanks for all the insight and knowledge in the many theology and ethics classes I took from you. You always seemed to find the humor in anything that we studied, and I’ll always remember the crazy stories you liked to tell us. Every time I drive by Caiocca Pass I think of you and your crazy deer-smashing story haha! Thanks for all you’ve done and I’m praying for you.

Your friend,

Brad Cacho

Hi professor :)

I have been meaning to write to you or at least put some kind of “nice” comment, but i felt that it wouldn’t really seem earnest.  I have been praying for you and been reflecting on what wise words you have imparted to me, one did stick out.  It was after a sermon and you said, “if you don’t remember anything from this, just remember this, Love and Be loved.” hahaha. thank you for being a great professor and “preacher”.

still praying for you

Dear Professor Ha,

Thank you for the vibrant smile that you wore on our trip to Albion. During Ministry Colloquium today, I got a copy of the group photo (the funny one) of the Religion department that we took on our retreat. You play a special part in our school’s family and I thank you for making it brighter.

Thoughts and Prayers,

Dear Professor Ha,

Hello this is Jae won Lee (I took SDA theology, Christian Bioethics, and Intro. to Christian Ethics from you). I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciated your presence in the class room, the short notes and encouragement that you gave me. Thank you for your help for helping me to grow in Jesus. 하나님이 항상 선생님과 가족들에게 함께 하길 간절히 기도하겠습니다.

Dear Professor Ha,

I’d like to inform you that you may be missing opportunities for self-medication. Many times in class you’ve said hilarious things and not laughed at them, perhaps through some misguided idea of social grace or coolness. You may be surprised to hear that laughter is the best medicine. From this point forward, please make sure to laugh at ALL of your own jokes.

We are all praying for you and thinking good thoughts.

We are ready for you to be well, inside and out.

With appreciation,

Megan Milholland

Hi Jimmy,

You know my girls (wife Angie, English lady doing chemo with you—daughter Aranyani Notestine, student in your Book of Daniel class). I work at the Market.

After my daughter used references from Daniel as life lessons that apply to us all, and made her inspiration obvious, I asked who her teacher was. “Jimmy Ha” she said with admiration. Angie spoke glowingly of your kind and gentle wife.

Our kids have only known Adventist education from pre-school. We are committed. I think this is the first time either one has demonstrated a love for the Bible in all these years. Aranyani now wants to go to the Holy Land with her fiancé. She is transforming, after years of reluctant “indoctrination”, into becoming wise, and devoted. I want to sit in your Daniel class.

A husband, a Dad,

Bob Notestine
