Mr. Ferrer was a role model as a teacher and coach to all of us who attended Mandeville High School when he was an educator there. He was also a friend, making each of us feel that he truly cared about our welfare and our future. Although I didn't know it then, he was setting a high standard for how I would view the role of educator as I entered the profession myself. I appreciate the many lessons I learned from watching him do a great job.
His loss is a big one to his family and to our community.
My deepest condolences to the family and friends of Hank. He was my mentor through high school and for eight years in the National Guard. A true Southern gentleman that will be missed by many. Jim Dalen
Rest In Peace, Uncle Hank. Thanks for hiring me to the painting crew at the ripe old age of 12, taking me dove hunting at 13 and treating me like a son my entire life. I will miss our quail hunts, fishing stories and your lawn mower visits to dad’s. I know dad’s already got you a spot in the best fishing boat in heaven, keep smiling “Cockeyed Junior”, the Ferrer name will live on proudly because of you and dad.
Our condolences to the Ferrer family. Mr. Ferrer will be sorely missed. He was a wonderful teacher and family man!

Mr. Ferrer was a friend of my family. He also was my fourth grade principal at Covington Elementary School. There at the school he was like a grandfather to all of the students. I know he will be greatly missed by his family and friends.
My deepest sympathy.
