*** -- I just stumbled onto this website and your name.
You were my coach when I was a kid on the tramp :bouncing:at the ol’ YMCA and later on the JHS swim team -- and would like you to know these many years later that you were very influential in setting the direction of this young person’s life. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I remember much of your guidance and advice (e.g., Don’t swim too long in the same place), and am grateful. I was a mere diver, and your nickname for me was “Noodles,” which had something to do with the way I normally entered the water. ANYWAY -- I hope you receive this sincere thanks. Pat Cannan
