Not sure what to say?





Its been a long time since he told me to walk-off a knee injury during a LCHS football game. Turned out I needed surgery! He was truly a great man and a better mentor. I wish only the best for his family and the children I attended LC with. God bless all of you. Colonel Gerald Kirchner, USAF Retired
