Our world has lost a very good man. As superintendent at Shelby-Tennant Community Schools the majority of my school years, he’ll always be ‘Mr. Kantor’ to me. Dad continued to speak of Mr. Kantor with respect and admiration, many years after working with him while on the school board. Rest easy now, Mr. Kantor, and thank you.

Sending sympathy to Mr. Kantor’s family, I too was in school at Shelby Tennant during the 60’s, and remember him well, he had such a deep resounding voice, and could get every one’s attention with one word. A very good man. He had my respect. Rest in Peace, Mr. Kantor

I was a student at Shelby-Tennant when Mr. Kantor was the superintendent there in the 1960’s. I remember the first time I saw him walking down the hall with his self assured gait and that stern look on his face. He was taking in everything around him and was always ready to command order if needed. He had this wavy pompadour with a few streaks of gray always carefully combed in place. His students will remember that he had a style all his own that some found old fashioned. How sporty he looked when he finally updated his wardrobe. Some students seemed to fear him but I’m not sure how much was fear or just good old fashioned respect for authority. His booming voice could certainly stop you in your tracks. His quiet presence was always there roaming around at football games, basketball games and other school functions. If he was there you knew that things were going as they were supposed to be going. I didn’t know much about him personally but my Dad and Milvoy were friends which tells me he had good stories to tell and a sense of humor. This man had no children of his own yet spent a great part of his life educating those of others. He was a devoted son who sacrificed and cared for his mother during her final years. May he rest in eternal peace. My sympathy to his family and to his former students who mourn his passing.

In the 70’s walked beans with him. Great man to work with. R.I.P. The Scholz Boys.
