When I was 17, Mr. Rouble told my parents that he was proud of my hard work ethic. It seems like such a little thing, but coming from your principal, it meant a lot, and something my 17 year old self needed to hear. As an adult it's easy to look back and recognize how much of a caring educator he was. My deepest condolences to his family and friends. I hope the knowledge that Mr. Rouble positively affected so many lives brings you some comfort.

My condolences to the family. Mr Rouble was our Principal at Sir John Franklin High School in Yellowknife, NWT during the 1970s - 1980 period. We were in the Class of 1980 and we loved him. Mr. Rouble had an enduring positive influence on countless young minds in their most formative years of development. He was universally polite, professional and polished in his interactions. If a student did something foolish and typical of the high school years, one could make your proper amends and Mr. Rouble never held it against you or gave sour looks afterwards. He was a supremely gifted educator and I know all of us North of 60 feel very fortunate he chose Yellowknife. Mr. Rouble led by example and we deeply admired, respected, appreciated and were influenced by this shining aspect of his personality.

Please accept my sincere condolence for the passing of John. In Yellowknife, John was my principal at Sir John Franklin High School. Without him, I would not have graduated from high school,or gone on to be a teacher myself. He was an inspiration to me and many students and staff and he will be remembered by all in Yellowknife who had the pleasure of knowing him.

John was such a truly interesting man, the tales of his life were always so fascinating. He was such a good story teller. It's been years since I have seen him, the conversations we had, will remain cherished. I only knew John through him being a customer of mine, and that just goes to prove what an impact he had on those who had the pleasure of meeting him. My deepest condolences to John's family and friends.
