Read MoreI was an athlete and coach in the St. Vrain school district for 37 years, and the Boulder actually meet was always one of the highlights of the year. Lonnie´s incredible generosity and support of students through the scholarships he sponsored says so much about the amazing man that he was and the legacy he left. God bless you Lonnie, may you rest in peace.

I knew Lonnie from we were both 4 years old in daycare. We were best buds growing up together in Huey, Reagan JR High, and WFSh, played on 3 kid baseball teams together until that fateful day he fell from the railroad tracks across the river I was with him up until probably 15 minutes before, as I needed to head home. We were together constantly at the Boys Club, and he was my personal trainer as I tried my hand at Golden Gloves boxing loosing only one match that year. I spent a few nights...

I´m so sorry to hear of Lonnie´s passing. We knew each other from high school and even before that from the Boys Club in Wichita Falls. The last time Lonnie and I got together was at our 30 year high school reunion and it was a good time. Will miss our spirited debates and conversations.
