Joseph Kohler, loved job as history teacher
Joseph E. Kohler was so dedicated to teaching that he refused to become principal when offered that job at Bellevue High School.
Mr. Kohler, 76, of Fort Thomas died Monday at Carmel Manor Nursing Home, Fort Thomas.
He taught history at Bellevue for 34 years and late in his career was asked to become the school's principal. He declined, said his sister-in-law, Helen Kohler of Fort Thomas because "he just didn't want to be out of the classroom."
Mr. Kohler was a member of the board of regents that helped to establish Northern Kentucky University in 1968, she said.
He also was active in St. Anthony Church in Bellevue, where he was a eucharistic minister and a member of the parish and school councils.
He would help parishioners and his neighbors when they needed transportation to doctor's appointments and the grocery store.
"If somebody needed help, he would help them, " she said.
