Holden

So very sorry to hear about this loss to your family. I have been there and can certainly feel for you as you find your way through all this pain.

I can also attest to the feelings and emotions that will sweep though your community...friends who are saddend by the loss of a very young coach...these people will help mend your heart. God Bless

Oh we never know where life will take us
I know its just a ride on the wheel
And we never know when death will shake us
And we wonder how we will feel

So goodbye my friend
I know I'll never see you again
But the time together through all the years
Will take away these tears
I'm okay now
Goodbye my friend....

Deepest condolences from Western NY.

Game called....

Game Called. Across the field of play
the dusk has come, the hour is late.
The fight is done and lost or won,
the player files out through the gate.
The tumult dies, the cheer is hushed,
the stands are bare, the park is still.
But through the night there shines the light,
home beyond the silent ill.

Game Called. Where in the golden light
the bugle rolled the reveille.
The shadows creep where night falls deep,
and taps has called the end of play.
The game is done, the score is in,
the final cheer and jeer have passed.
But in the night, beyond the fight,
the player finds his rest at last.

Game Called.

Upon the field of life
the darkness gathers far and wide,
the dream is done, the score is spun
that stands forever in the guide.
Nor victory, nor yet defeat
is chalked against the players name.
But down the roll, the final scroll,
shows only how he played the game.

Deepest condolences.........this poem from Grantland Rice seems appropriate...

HC - My very deepest sympathies

Thanks to everyone. You are all proof of what a great community this is.

Very sorry to hear about that it's always sad to lose a good person, especially someone who helps himself and his community, The world has become a little more evil with the loss of another good person.

Our thoughts are with you....Stay strong..

SO sad, always...last year my daughters track coach 31 same fate. I've known a 22 and 30 year old...

But you know what they say...the good "go" young.

Still there are no words and it never makes sense!

HC,
What a tragic story...an truly inspirational young man...but take solace in knowing that every young person he met and came in contact with... a little bit of him lives on through them

We knew Peter when he coached my son in AAU (15's), and then when they played together in NSBL. He was a very good Coach, and a great person. He will be missed. Our prayers are with his young family.....

So sorry for your loss.

Prayers are with your community.
