Your Memories of Willard Dennis Midgette

Tonight, Tuesday 12/4/2007 I just learned of the passing of Dennis Midgette. 'Coach' Midgette was our varsity High School Baseball coach @ Hollywood Hills High School. I had the pleasure of playing for coach 3 years. One thing coach Midgette asked me to do for the team my entire senior year-was to say a prayer before each game. I did. He coached baseball as he once played the game professionally-with passion. I am thankful for the opportunity to have known him. Any man who loves baseball goes to heaven!!
