• So sad to hear of Mr Smorang’s passing! I have very fond memories of him being my science teacher for grade 7-9! He was the first teacher you saw everyday as his room was right across from the front entrance! He loved his role as a traffic cop too 😆 always yelling “hey Price do you know where your going?” ❤️ Well years later I got a little payback when he became a patient of mine while working at Seven Oaks Emergency! Sometimes when he was waiting in the waiting room and needed to be reassessed I would talk louder than normal “hey Smorang get over here” 🥰🥰! We would have a good laugh! RIP Mr Smorang - your students loved you & thank you 🙏 - Posted by: Heather Booy (Student ) on: May 02, 2023

• Sad to hear of Mr. Smorang's passing. I was a student of his at Cecil Rhodes (1978-81). He was one of my favorites. His character ties, funny jokes and how he always stopped my hiccups. Right outside his door was a water fountain and you would drink. Then out of nowhere he would slap your back. No more hiccups. I have very fond memories over the 3 years he was my teacher. My condolences to his family. - Posted by: Tina Scowen (Student) on: Apr 30, 2023
