In memory of Dennis Pelisek
Student (1962-65); Staff (1970-94)

St John's High School Alumni,

We are sorry to have to announce the passing of a well loved teacher from St John's. Dennis Pelisek died November 6th (AM). Many will remember him from Junior High Social Studies, or high school Geography; he also coached both male and female freshman basketball for years. He will be sadly missed.
