His mom is one of the sweetest people in the world, I saw her just week before last. It's a real tragedy. Thanks for posting this.

Yep. In fact, there's a good chance we've met. Ask him if he went to the Alumni Banquet back in April.

Probably, as a matter of fact I think he missed my b-day dinner for that. His name is Matt Thomas, he is 21 years old. Studying sports broadcasting. He has a radio show on that school sports station and he covers most of the Memphis games. He sits on press row. I am so proud of him. And he hangs out at Wolo's house with his son.

So sorry, I didn't mean to hijack the thread.

I have been reading about this young man and what a story and a fine young man he was. I was a Sig Ep a long time ago. I never met this young man but what a loss this is for us all. Prayers for the family and all who knew him.

Mind if I ask what 'a long ago' means? I'm from the mid 70's. And yes, from all I have read he was the kind of man we need more of, just a fine guy in all respects. I can only trust that God needed him more than we did.
