John N. "Nick" McCabe Jr.

'Coach' was my first "real" tennis teacher. He took me on as a pupil and would have me drill until I could hit a tennis ball can on the baseline from the opposite baseline. He insisted that how you looked hitting the ball was as important as how you hit and taught me the most beautiful ( and deadly) forehand. My parents(Edith & Tony Vandenweghe)were close friends with Nick when he was single and he took my brother and I fishing & brought us a live Red Bird from one of his trips 'back home'....

Nicky and I ,with my brothers shared the same grandmother Quinn, we also shared many early memories in Nebraska,in North Platte.Nicky and I had a chance recently to talk and reminisce. Our prayes and sympathy to all his loving family
