As a young Teacher & Coach of the Central High School students this Giant in stature moved through the halls and didn´t need to make a lot of noise to get his point across and yet influenced & changed the course of so many lives looking up to him effortlessly. As a man of many hats in this life none can compare to the crown well deserved as a faithful servant. Rest well our friend until we meet again. Central Chargers #74 & 75.
