Well, my favorite teacher ever died today.(Mr. Gigstad)
-
Though I never had him I'd regularly visit him when I was in Johnson's class...he was a sweet teacher. What a shitty day
-
He was an awsome teacher, with a awsome attitude. RIP Mr. Gigstad!!! You will be missed.
Gigstad in the past, didnt come out this year, was a Auto-xer with his rx-7s. To my last knowlegde he had 3 FC's. When talking to him outside of class he always was trying to learn differant stuff about cars( we had long discussions on my project, the 240, and turbos.......)

I remember goin to his house on halloween a few years ago and looked at his FC's, i think every single one had about 30 diet coke cans on it.
That facebook group is growing, its obvious this guy was on tops of everyones list for favorite teachers. Im glad i was lucky enough to be a student

yeah halloween our senior year was BA just handed us like 2 lbs of candy each... and brought us back and showed his other RX-7's and just would sit and bullshit with us about cars every day in class if we got done with the assignment early

I'll probably be at the NDSU/Gopher game, but I plan on going to the visitation. What time is everybody else going/anybody else?
-
I want to go to either the Visitation or the Funeral...not sure which yet.
Both will be packed obviously.

I heard about this today in class and just about started crying. Gigstad had, without a doubt, one of the best attitudes towards teaching and life in general.I had him for government and mentorship. He was a big inspiration to me and was one of the reasons I chose the major that I did. He had blue s4 FC out at the fargodome auto x 2 years ago if anyone can remember that...
"You'll know its my last day teaching when I come in with a cigarette in my mouth, a coke in one hand and a bottle of jack in the other"
He owned a mig, tig and arc welder, a plasma cutter and a whole bunch of other fab tools and used them on a regular basis.
He will be greatly missed and can never be replaced.

That really sux.......He was by far one of the best teachers at MHS. I will be going to the funeral.
