Marlin is great. He is so aware of the value in tying the past with the present.

Wish I was going to be there. Got to know Dean at both of the basketball reunions last year. One hella-of-a-person. A credit to the University.

I also heard Marvin Winkler would be there next week for the game. At the time did not know why but now it makes sense. One of Coach Shipley's former players was talking to Mrs. Shipley and told her that Marvin would be in town next week. I am not sure who the gentleman was, but it was obvious to me that he played basketball and he knew Mrs Shipley.

I remember, I believe my senior year in high school, listening on the radio to a USL vs. Duke game when Dean Church was playing. Great to finally see him In the HOF.
