Scott, Brian, and Humes Family, Sorry to hear about the passing of your father. I will always
remember him as a great coach, father, and supporter of our school's athletic program. He was
truly a remarkable man and teacher to those who met him. Although I cannot personally attend the
sevices, my thoughts and prayers are with you and your family on this day.
God Bless,

Hi Scott and Dana and Family. I am so sorry for your loss. I thought that I would share a story
with you. The first year Bowen played football with the team he kept telling me "grandpa" was
yelling at him about his shoes not being tied, every game, "grandpa yelled at me again about my
shoes." Finally I walked over to my Dad and said, please leave Bo alone about his shoes, he doesnt
like it! Well my Dad said he had never said a word about Bo's shoes. So later I asked Bo why he
had said my dad yelled at him, he said, No, not that grandpa, I was talking about "That Grandpa
Coach". Last year he made sure the shoes were double knoted and tied tight for "The Grandpa
Coach" and he always gave Bo a pat on the back and a "good job" when Bo showed him the shoes.
Bo really liked to make him happy. Its funny, Bo never called him just coach, he always called him
"THE GRANDPA COACH", that how he will always be remembered.
