    • To Mike's Family, I send you my sincere sympanthy to you all. Mike was one of my Dad's (Coach Joe Williams) football players in high school, and as a young little girl I had the biggest crush on him. I thought he was the cutest one on the football team!! Mike knew it and when he went to Jr. College, he sent me a picture of himself in his football uniform. I saw Mike in March when he, with other guys from the team attended my Dad's funeral. I thought it was very special to have them all there and I am thankful to them and to have gotten to see him. A difficult time for you as well. You have been in mine and my family's thoughts this week. Mary Elaine Williams Brown McKenzie, TN 38201
