B
When he was 12 years old, the boy made a decision. He only later realized it probably hurt his teacher. He was, after all, a kid. But in time, when he was older and wiser, he wanted to find this teacher and apologize (道歉). But the teacher seemed to have disappeared.
In the past ten years, the boy, Larry Israelson, often turned to the Internet, typing the teacher’s name into search boxes. He never found anything. But he never stopped looking. Last month—by now nearly 39 years after the event happened—he got a hit.
Excited, he started reading a story I had written in The Oregonian about a program that helps kids. He studied a photo and found his teacher, who was a volunteer. He then emailed me and asked me to introduce him to the teacher, James Atteberry.
I got in touch with Atteberry. He agreed to talk to his student. Shortly thereafter, I received a package with an envelope in it. I immediately took it to Atteberry.
