TBonesLU Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 He looks a good twenty years younger than he is. What a cool story... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.KnowItAll Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 He was honored at homecoming a couple years ago right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest CardAmbassador Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Yeah, he was honored the first year at homecoming. He was in a golf cart if I remember correctly. That's very cool, he played under John Gray. If you ever have time to read about John Gray you will be impressed. He was a visionary just like Dr. Simmons is for us today, he was the one that moved the campus to it's current location and was with the school almost from its founding. He took time away from Lamar to become a very successful banker too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
