Not sure what to say?

I offer my deepest sympathies to the family of Bobby. I was a basketball teammate of Bobby on several teams. With all of his celebrity he was always humble and respectful. He was great basketball player but a greater human being. I loved bobby and I will never, never forget him.

It has been one year. We still speak about you as if you were still here. I guess you always will be. Love and miss you.

My deepest sympathy to the Knight family. My memories of Bobby go back over 40 years. He taught my mom Jessie Harvey to play tennis after a tragic accident, she was told she would never walk again. Well Bobby told her put the crutches down and she went on to play for over 30 years.
I can still hear his deep funny laugh on the keney park tennis courts always being kind and helpful to everyone,May your soul rest in peace Bobby Knight.
