Not sure what to say?

You made a great impression on me playing for you as a freshman. The words you spoke to me have carried with me throughout my life, for that I can't thank you enough. I moved away many years ago but I have never forgotten the impression you made on me. RIP coach!

We have so many fond memories of Coach Watson. Peace and blessings to your family.

Comfort Planter

Heartfelt sympathies to all in your family for your great loss during this difficult time of sorrow. In the days ahead may you find comfort and hope in the promise found at John 6:40.

Football practices would not be the same without "Watty". His sense of humor always made practices more fun. His smile always made you think that life was good. I will miss the "frog stance" on the defensive line. Prayers of peace for the family. I was so glad to have known him.

Warm Embrace Arrangement

May your hearts soon be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.

May the Father of tender mercies be with you.

Our family grieves with Coach Watson's family. As members of the Walled Lake wrestling program for 16 years, we spent a lot of time with Coach. With deepest sympathy, Joe and Julie Ilacqua
