As a kid growing up in WCH I had several individuals I looked up to and one of those individuals was Don Gibbs.He was my coach, counselor, mentor and most important, great friend. I have so many memories of Don that I will never forget. Rest In Peace. My thoughts and prayers go out to Kevin, Vince and their families.

Vince and Kevin, I just asked God to comfort you in the loss of your dad. You well know that your dad was a wonderful person who made everyone feel better. I can still see him laughing with the rest of the wonderful bunch of coaches at Court House.

My deepest sympathy and condolences to Harvey's remaining family. He was a dear friend and distant relative. We have lost another member of The Gang from childhood through college and beyond. He leaves us with the fondness of memories, but a heavy heart. Thoughts and prayers go out to the family.

Vince and Kevin, Johnand I were so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. We were students at Washington and parents to students at Washington. We loved your dad and enjoyed listening to him talk. My dad was Bill Mount and I know he spent some time with your dad and Coach Shaffer. So many memories of both your parents. Please accept our sincere condolences and may your dad Rest In Peace . We always loved seeing him on his trips back to Court House and will miss seeing him!
