My Greyhound Family,
My family and I wish to thank you for your support this past week. I am so very grateful and appreciative that you have taken the time to rally to my defense during this challenging time. Your kind and generous words touch me deeply. You have made me proud to know you and to have served as your Coach and been part of Greyhound Football and the Clayton High School community these past eleven years. It is an honor to know each and every one of you. As much as you say you have learned and benefited from me, I have also learned, grown and become a better person and educator because of you. No matter what the future holds, I will keep you all in my heart and carry you with me as part of my extended family. Please know I will always be there for you, as you have been there for me. All of our good times, the laughter and tears, hard work and even harder work, on and off the football field, wins and defeats, are the memories that can never be taken away and will remain.
Thank you also to all the parents, alumni and friends who have supported me. I thank you greatly for allowing me to be a part of your child’s life!
I remain your friend, teacher and coach in the truest sense of the word.
