It's been many many years but I still remember the 3 on 3 games with Mr. LaFon, Rob, and the
Germacks which sometimes got a little rough but was always competitive and fun. Mr. LaFon had some real "skills" on the court and was always a true gentleman. Comdolences to you Rob and to family and friends.
