Harvey Hesser was the epitome of the man who walked softly but carried a big stick. Soft spoken, dignified, intelligent, strict, and compassionate, are all adjectives that describes this Principal of Hamilton High School (West) during my years as a student there. It was my privilege to meet with him numerous times after I left Hamilton High school. He and his lovely wife Dorothy were frequent visitors to Louise Baird's apartment on Hamilton Avenue where Judy and I spent many years after we graduated.
