Words cannot express - We love you guys, you're family too me. Coach Sheets always had time for a rent-a-kid like me(Blake). Pointed me in the right direction, offered the same advice my father would when I wouldn't listen to my father. Put his foot up my rear end when I needed it. And was always happy to see me for the short times we would see eachother as I grew older. The caliber of the man Mr. Sheets was immense, the way my father and his brothers respected and spoke of him from the days when they were young, to the respect us neighborhood kids had for him and Mrs. Sheets. He touched so many lives with expectations and greater standards. He made individuals better. Your family has always been kind and supportive, my family and I are here; if you should ever need us for anything. Love you guys so much. Praying for all of you.
