I only met Coach within the last year when he visited the 402 Salon on his way to do his earns. He always greeted me while I was having my hair done. One day he had the pleasure of meeting my husband who to their suprise was a Yankee fan. They talked about baseball and as I watched them talk I could see the excitment in their eyes. My husband died 2 days before Coach from Lung Cancer. God had a purpose that they should meet and I beleive they are both up in heaven enjoying many conversations about the Yankees and baseball.

Wow! Paul Fiore is gone. Paul was a great pitcher. He was a magician on the mound for Holy Name, the Saints and a Pro. He was the Pedro Martinez of his day. From those of us who played with him, we remember him as a nice, entertaining guy. My condolences to his family.
