Coach K
Our Human Sports Collector is ending his long run. He has been moved from the hospital with his COVID breakthrough of the Delta into Hospice Comfort Care.
A Worcester native and South High basketball and track performer who went to Worcester Junior, Northwest Missouri, then University of Arkansas, playing/ teaching/coaching/refereeing in all those areas along with Florida and Guam has come down to his last seconds in the game. Update: Sorry to say he didn't win the game. He passed on August 12th.
Our last Blog Post showcased all those he met in his life colleagues and friends. See it here. or https://graycelynnlilyauthor.blogspot.com/2020/10/rusty-and-big-gs-sports-corner-gift.html

A Go Fund Me has been started, as this was so sudden and unexpected we are not prepared. Too much was not taken care of and this whole maze of getting help and getting things done even without COVID has been nerve wracking to say the least.
If you remember Coach from intramurals, basketball, coaching, referring he needs your help now. His sports world was an alternate to what real life was like and always in a good karma way.
