Coach,
I had the brief pleasure of meeting your dad. I did notice that he was a fan of baseball and very proud of his son. I have always said coming to UAB changed my life and I am glad I was a brief part of your family. I am sorry for your loss coach. I will tip my hat to your Dad.

Dear Pete:
I am sorry to learn of the passing of your Dad. I did not know him, but indirectly, he influenced my life in a positive way through you in our days at Auburn, and later when I was SID at Samford. Thank you for your friendship. I rejoice today that your Dad is in the presence of our Lord.
In Christ,

I get to tell them about your...
