Kathy,
I wanted to send my condolences regarding the passing of Coach Godfrey.
He was quite the mentor to me and my entire family. My brother played under his guidence at OW. I was a trainer with the football team when playing football was not an option. He treated me with fairness and a little humor for sure! He was a great person for dedicating his career to making so many men out of boys that he mentored. I know he is in heaven making a team that is unbeatable.
Prayers for both of you and family.

Cathy, My heart goes out to you today for your loss, as I am Sickened also. We shared fishing trips and more talking about fishing and of course football. Stan will be so missed by myself and many others. I know you hear this many times but if there´s anything that I can do, please let me know. It comforts me and I know you as well that Stan became very close to our Lord and Savior. We had some in depth Conversations about Him the last few times we spoke. You have our heartfelt sympathy.
