Never-ending Dedication

Dale / Coach –

Even though I’ve traveled many miles from where I grew up and it’s been many years since I’ve seen you and my teammates in person, much like a parent who imparts their wisdom onto their child, the lessons I learned while being a member on one of your many winning teams have stayed with me to this day. The never-ending dedication you exhibited to your students, myself included, are truly what make us the exceptional men we’ve grown up to be. Commitment, strength, perseverance and balance in all areas of our lives are some of the qualities you’ve instilled in me. Oh yes, and don’t forget to always warm up before any physical exercise! ;-) (Stretching one’s body and stretching one’s mind are how we grow as human beings.)
Thank you for all you’ve contributed to my life and for being the truly inspirational person you have always been.

With warm thoughts, gratitude, and continued best wishes for many years to come!
