So sorry to hear this, I still remember Ms. Smith(then) getting flowers sent to her(my) classroom from Coach Hilbert. Then getting coached by this great man when I made it to high school. Thanks for everything you did for so many and especially me. What a great positive influence that this world has lost. See ya later Coach.
