Where to start. Don let this young (and not very good) coach work as a "gofer" to bring some of his kids who couldn't afford it to the All-Star school. He and Doug (and EJ) rank at the top of the nicest people I ever had the pleasure of knowing. I hope to be able to pay my respects in person. If not know that there's a guy in Salem who treasures his memory. RIP Slip.
