McNicholas
Please accept my condolences. I just heard about his death. I was Coach’s student manager at McNicholas High School in the mid-1960s. I remember him fondly and appreciate his mentorship. Coaches bring more to the students than coaching expertise. Coach brought that to me and I thank him.
Take care

I felt lucky that I had Mr Tassini has one if my very first teachers ever. And then when he returned to Lloyd, never was there a greater coach and music lover. You have left a positive influence with so many. You are a true juggernaut!
