Default These post break my heart every time

These post are heartbreakers!! Jon Thomas, Dirk Thomas, Doc semby, David Fox and my wife were all people who I knew well!! Dirk I met in Chicago in 1996 he painted the Giants for me for free!!He came to all three of my coaches challenges!!!I talk to him all the time!! I really miss him.My wife loved football she loved playing efl.One time we were in chicago at one of the conventions when she and Jon Thomas decided to play three and out!! Jon could`nt really believe that she could play!!He went on offence first and went three and out!!Then Annette got the ball she drove the ball down field then scored Jon got up and left the room it was so funny!!Smebyand I talked all the time about solo football and collecting and Fox well those who knew Fox knows he was a nut!! All these legends are missed!!

Default another

another was David Trouten a dear friend of our family who was in our league when i lived in Monroe Michigan,,,He was always Ohio B Rate (my term for Ohio state)...and we had some whale of games...he'd also come over for dinner often (Dave was a big guy so that took a lot..lol)...And we go on trips together..he had to move away in the early 90s and we lost touch till his mom called me and he passed away from a blood clot..he was only 38...I went to his funeral in coldwater Michigan.....

Dave was a good friend and a EF buddy too...along with Doc ...Dirk and the others here's a tribute to you...RIP

Stay Blessed
Lock,

Is this something you'd be willing to help make happen? If so, get in touch with me and let me know what you have in mind. Hopefully we won't give Jimbo a stroke.

Peace,

Don

Default sure Don

no prob if we could get pics of all our fallen EF/MF BRotherS AND sisters. Im thinking we could do something at the banquet. Small but impacting. maybe projection screen shots a mention of the names of each person, with some music like NFL films kinda feel, and I wouldnt want it to be sad but a celebration of these great people. Hit me on friday Don im off we can plan
