    Breaking News!!  

Yes, this is going to break the hearts of so many St John's alumnus and students.

* Mr Hugh Eckel *

has sadly passed away early morning on Tuesday, 17 April 2007 due to a heart attack. His passing was so sudden that the news shocked everyone at the college. He didn't show any sign of illness and was seen talking to students and teachers on Monday the previous day. 

Mr Eckel started teaching at St John's College in 2001. He replaced Mr Jon Cenko who was teaching Economics. Since then he also taught Accounting, Australian Studies and had been teaching 7 generations of students (generation refers to year in this case). He was particularly close with the international students as many of us chose business as our major. Australian studies was also taught to the new students studying the intensive English program.

His funeral will be held on Friday 20 April 2007 at 2pm at St Mary's cathedral in Darwin Australia. He will surely be missed by many of his students and former students. Anyone wishing to send condolences or prayers please send an e-mail to Mrs Ann Tan (cntanau@yahoo.com.au) who will then pass them onto Mr Eckel's family. Please keep his family in your prayer.

I will update this as I gather more info on Mr Eckel as I left St John's many years now so don't really know what he was doing at St John's.

CONGRATULATIONS to:

Ishak and Yuszhy Halim.. on the birth of their son:
