Always remembered, i love that, couldn't be a more true statement. I was always excited to see you; all you had to do is look at me with that scrunched forehead and we'd laugh so hard, no words needed... Thank you for always having the courage to be yourself. Leroy, I pray for God to send you comfort, peace, and understanding.

I was very sorry to learn of Tuck’s passing while I was in Tennessee. Tuck was a former student and played football for me while at Pisgah. I truly enjoyed coaching him and he was one of the most fun loving, respectful, and friendliest students and players that I’ve ever coached in my 30 year career. He sincerely made a lasting impression in my life and will always be remembered. He had big heart and a smile for everyone. My sincerest thoughts and prayers for his family as they move forward during this difficult period.
