L. Lindquist-Koyama wrote a sympathy message

“I was saddened to hear about the passing of Mr. Houdek. He was one of my track coaches and math teachers. Math was never boring having Mr. Houdek as a teacher. I was not aware he was a Dakotan also. Although I am a northerner. Thanks Mr. Houdek for being you. Lisa Koyama”
