Krys came to me yesterday and showed me her school newspaper. It said that my favorite high school teacher is leaving. He will be moving to GA to coach in a high school up there. My heart sank to my feet. Coach Springer doesn't even know how much he has influenced my life. Coach Springer may not remember me but I sure do remember him. When I was going through personal problems I confided in him. He helped me straighten out quicker than I would have. Even though I haven't spoken to him since my sister's Freshmen year, I can honestly say I will miss him. Its only proper to end this journal entry w/ one of Coach Springer's memorable quotes.
"If you fail to prepare, you prepare to fail." - F. Springer
