Not sure what to say?

Hey Lila.. We love you. We miss our times together. Just know Jimmy continues his football fame even tho' he is unseen to our mortal sense. Our deepest love to you and the children.

I miss "Coach." I thought about him today. And I prayed for your family. May God bless you all.

Hello Lila This message from your chestnut circle neighbor Marilynn Smyth I will always remember Jim's help when I broke my leg.

Sorry for your loss. Just learned via year end letter from NFL that Gummie past away. I will never forget him dancing at Candlestick before a game, shaking his leg and rocking out with rhythm and soul. What a great guy. I knew Jimmy in Atlanta and Philly as a player.

Ms. Lila, you and Coach are missed and thought of often at Shadowbrook. Our love and prayers go out to you and your family.

I SALUTE MY EX ROOM-MATE AT MORRIS HARVEY COLLEGE 1952-53...NOW UNI OF CHARLESTON.HE IS HOME NOW.

I was blessed to have known Coach. He will be missed. My prayers are with you and your family, Lila.
