Eugene and I played against each other in the late 1960´s playing little league football in Durham. Eugene and his brother Daniel continued to grow bigger than me, and I gave up football. I was happy when we were reunited at WSSU. RIP, my brother.

My deepest condolences to you and your family in the passing of Jake. It was a pleasure working with him at the H AWS. We really had a great family relationship within the Organization. Everyone looked out for one another. We all had some great times working there. He will truly be missed.
May you and your family Linda have comfort in knowing how special he was and we share in your grief.

Gene and I played little league football against each other when we were kids in Durham. I was happy to hear that he was going to WSSU to play football. He will be greatly missed. My deepest sympathy to his family.
