Ray,Wayne and all of the Broome family, I read about your Dad's passing and so many thoughts ran through my head about the lives we all had growing up because of parents like your Dad. He was there doing his part to make sure we had what we needed to compete in sports, and in general have a safe surrounding to grow up in. I remember most of all that he was always there. What a great Dad!

Your friend, Bobby and Carlee Grove
