| I just saw that Coach Hensley died. I, like many others, had him as a coach and American History teacher. He once told Robert Bryant and me that we had arms like fishing worms, and once told the football team at halftime that Jesus said that the meek would inherit the earth, and that a lot of us had a lot of real estate coming. He was a bigger than life character, who had a lot of influence on my formative years. May he rest in peace. Chris Foster |

| Yeah, Chris, he's was an amazing man. He once told me that "when a bruising full back broke through our defensive line and the only thing between he and the goal post were Ralph Shank and I; he had to close his eyes and just pray"........... |
