Larry Conners wrote a sympathy message

“So many years have passed since those days at Rosendale High School, but I continue to have vivid memories of the good times and friendships. "Coach" taught lessons not only for basketball, but for life. Often, during what is now my own long life, have my thoughts drifted back to those times and days. I thank God for the experience of knowing this truly outstanding man. May the family bask in your own memories, and may he always rest in peace!”
