Very PROUD to say I was one of his players - taught me how to become a man! My thoughts and prayers are with "Coach" and his family.

Donna,
I'm sorry to hear this news about your dad. I always remember you out there keeping stats at the football games! I'm sure he was proud to have you there.
I noticed I shared a birthday with him.
Praying for your family.

Doug, my condolences to you and your family. I distinctively remember your family moving to E-town and was glad to have the new family in town with Mr. Shearer having that southern. accent and now I see Jake was from Highspire. Hope the fishing is going well.

I am so sorry to hear about Jake's passing.. He was a good man, great teacher, always interested in the kids. I learned a lot about coaching from him. Jake was always talking about his family. He truly loved and was proud of you all!

Doug,
So sorry to hear of you dad's passing.. I remember him well. Though I did not have him as a teacher, he somehow knew who I was and whenever I saw him he always asked how my day was going.. It makes me laugh now to say that he used to scare me to death!! At any rate, I just wanted to let you know that I am sorry for your loss.
