Teachers play a very important role in the lives of students. They teach, inspire, nurture and raise them to be the best version of themselves. Some teachers go the extra mile for their students to make them feel valued and loved. In an inspiring example of his commitment and love for his students, a teacher made sure all of his students' work was graded hours before he died.
A picture of the teacher working on his laptop from his hospital bed was shared by his daughter Sandra Venegas in 2020. The touching moment has gone viral again on social media. The teacher made the effort to bring his laptop and charger even though he was having a health problem and knew he was going to the emergency room. He finished grading every student and tragically died the next day.
It was recently shared by an Instagram page 'Not So Common Facts'.
