Ed Veit

About Ed

Just before my 27th birthday, I was standing on the roof at the Sheraton Park Hotel on Cathedral Avenue in Northwest Washington DC. I was making sure President Kennedy wasn't shot. This was my last duty before my resignation from the Metropolitan Police Department of Washington D.C. took hold and I became a freshman at West Chester State College. Since then I taught English, journalism and coached soccer at Dundalk High School, earned degrees at Loyola and Johns Hopkins and coached soccer at UMBC. I was president of TABCO from 1989 until 1993. Later I taught writing at Harford CC and York College.

Hello Mr. Veit,
Finally at last, there are some members of the GOP that are speaking out, notably Chris Christie and Bobby Jindal, against the extreme right winged tea party faction.
The tea party is now attempting to remove Mitch McConnell from his position as Senate Minority leader. Unbelievable !
The tea party has destroyed the integrity of the entire republican party.
Mr. Veit, you were my English teacher in '68 and '69 at Dundalk High School. I want to take this opportunity to tell you that I enjoyed your classes and I have fond memories of them.
I was the skinny nerdy kid with the hearing impairment.

With regards !

Hello Mr. Veit,

I was in your English class at EVT. I've always remembered you because when I broke my arm midway thru the school year - you teased me about how sloppy my handwriting had become. You used to always put smelly football stickers on my papers and even on my cast. I always remember you talking about the shuttle mission that you had signed up to be one. We were fortunate that you were not one of the teachers on that sad event in history. You were a wonderful teacher and we were lucky to have you!

Hi,

I am working on a feature film that is helping a great cause as well as offering people the opportunity to get involved
with the film. I think this would be a great story to write about and tell people. I just wanted to pass this along. …Or If it’s not too much trouble, pledge on something (they are offering great things!) and if you can also please pass this along to your friends.

If I can help you out with anything or the production can help you with anything, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Here is the link for the film:

Hello Mr. Veit,
My sister (Dottie Rolf-Whitcomb) class of '83 and myself will alway remember you as one of our favorite 3 English teachers in 10th grade. Thank you for everything you did and continue to do.
