He sounds like he was a wonderful director and a wonderful human being -- those two don't always coincide! You got lucky. I did too (though my high school choir director was a tiny, cig-smoking, gum-chewing baritone lady). She got a lot of kids to stay in school!
Ok…. That was definitely a warm fuzzy memory. We sure did "just sing" for him. Mostly I remember the Hallelujah Chorus for the Christmas Vespers. One year my church had the choir sing it and all of Mr. Snider’s chorus members politely declined a copy of the music. We knew our parts! 😉
Your kind and generous tribute touched me deeply.

A lovely tribute to a lovely man.
