Henry Merrill, 76, was sitting in a Bagdad Elementary School classroom when superintendent Dr. Karen Barber and staff from the school came into the room holding flowers.
At first Merrill, who is a substitute teacher, thought he might be in trouble, but soon realized Barber was there for a much different reason.
