I was privileged to have him as a Professor. We would have lunch sometimes and discuss programming paradigms and modern web techniques. He'll be missed.

You had an opportunity I could only dream of.

I've never had access to a mentor of any kind, on the job or otherwise.

I still hope to have one someday.

That he would spend that kind of time with his students (undergrad? grad? I don't know or care.) is impressive and says a lot.
