"I think I was blessed with several men in my life who played a major roll in helping me become the man I have been. High School, Birt Dlater and Jack Manotti. Helped me through high school and got me on the road to college when others told me to forget it. Tough time in my life. Father was critically ill and did not expect to live to his next day. Burt and Jack were there for me at all times. Junior college, Harry West. Made sure I completed college by helping me become a college student and to find that needed direction to complete my degree. Marv Braden and Lew Erber. Helped build trust in myself, develop moral character and commitment to life's required responsibilities. All taught me toughness which shielded me from the hard knocks in life. Dedication to the team spirit as well as understanding that nothing in life is easy or free. Coach Braden has also taught me what unconditional love is. For family, for God, and for fellow teammates through life. As I reflect back on the many stages of life that I have evolved through I know that I could not have been successful as a husband, father or a man without the lessons taught me by all of these great men! May God Bless them all!"
