Mr Archibeque was my Soanish teacher at Morse High School in San Diego, CA. He was my only inspirational teacher. I graduated mid term. He attended my wedding. He wrote in my annual, "stand by your convictions". I have. Been married 49 years. I'm so sad he has passed and never got the opportunity to tell him. What a class act you were. RIP

Mr. Archibeque was my Spanish teacher at Morse High School in San Diego from 1964-1967. I wish I had know he had returned to California. I was the principal of a 96% Latino school located in Oakland. Completely change the curriculum to a Dual/Bilingual Immersion program. Many of the ideas I used and implemented came from being a student of Mr. Archibeque. Driving thee red Mustang, dressed elegantly with suits from the El Cortez Men's Shop. HE VERY MUCH IMPACTED MY LIFE IN A POSITIVE WAY. I REGRET I DIDN'T GET TO TELL HIM. Maestro mejor!! Mil gracias por su vida!!!

I was a student of Joe back in the early 80s. I will never forget him and his dedication to his students. I just recently had him come back in to my thoughts and I'm sorry to hear of his passing. God bless you Joe. Thank you for your contributions to all of us who went to Graham Middle School.

I live in Solana Beach, CA. Joe was my Grandfather. I really never had the opportunity to know him. I did hear stories of him from my father, my Grandmother (his first wife, Margo), and also from his sister Rosie when we visited her on SLC, Utah. My thoughts and prayers go out to his wife and daughters. I'm sure he will be missed.

Joe was my uncle (my mother's half brother). His sister Francis and I have shared many memories of him from the earlier years. My family and I were sorry to hear of his death and will keep him in our prayers with the wish that we had been able to know him better.
