Sad Face

Today, another person lost his life to cancer.

A healthy 50 year old father of two. A husband. A friend. A coach.

I happen to be close to this man's older child. Needless to say, my friend is crushed. This is not something people our age should have to go through, a parent's death. But my friend is. And its heart breaking.

I knew Kevin well, too. He was the first coach to cut me from a soccer team. I never let him forget it :) In high school he came to my games as well as his son's and he would give me pointers and his thoughts. He was like that. He was always getting involved. He coached soccer long after his kids were grown and off at college, he just loved being a part of that community. He touched the lives of hundreds and hundreds of soccer players, and he will be very much missed.

We lost Kevin to cancer. Cancer. We don't need to lose anyone from cancer. We can beat cancer. We can find a cure.
