A True Tiger Fan & Always a Beliver

My son was killed in an automobile accident on his way to work. He was hit head-on. The details are not relevant. What is relevant is that several weeks ago he had the opportunity to have a one-on-one conversation with DANNY FORD. He called me afterwards and told me and I quote; "How many people in life ever have the chance to meet and have a private conversation with their hero!" He attended his first Clemson game when he was 4. His life was tragically cut short at 40. He left a beautiful wife, a daughter, and two step-children that he absolutely adored. His funeral ended with his casket being rolled out with his coffin draped with a Tiger Paw flag with TIGER RAG playing in the chapel! RIP My Son! I know you will be with the Tiger faithful in the Way Upper North Stands (Heaven) cheering the Tigers to the pinnacle of college football success!

But know that Tiger Nation feels for you and your family. I truly believe that with all the Tiger fan losses I have seen on this board that they all will be somewhere in death valley come kickoff of each and every game!

thank you for sharing the story. i hope you are sustained by many wonderful memories and the knowledge that you will see your son again, at the time when "God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away."
