The Angels in heaven are smiling
And from TPM:
Draft day always brings back alot of memories.
Congratulations to all of the players and their families.
A special congrats to Preston Claiborne. What he has accomplished (losing a parent while in college and remaining focused to reach the next step) is just amazing.
Thank you so much ClevelandDad & TPM! His sister & I are so proud. The "college experience" wasn't "typical" for our family. In addition to his dad, we lost his grandmother & aunt within 17 months, and my aunt & a cousin this Spring, just a few days-weeks before Graduation on May 20. But...God has blessed Preston so fully! He's on his way!
May all our youngmen enjoy their successes & continue "living the DREAM!"
