Fantastic Job. Fought off the momentum shift and won it in four. One of the best moments in the games.

This was a very sad thing to happen to the Coaches family. I am very surprised that they were able to do so well at the games. Great Job

The coach was a great example to his team and to all of us. He truly honored his in-laws. I think his father-in-law was cheering him in spirit. (No morbid pun intended.)

Death can be such a tragedy, but one thing I do not doubt, those who have passed on do not want those that are left behind to hurt and not feel joy. I think it is such a conflicting feeling, when we experience joy during a sorrowful time. But we need to give our selves permission to be happy and to enjoy those good moments. There will be plenty of moments of sadness, but I am glad that this family had something to rejoice over and hope that it will help their hearts to heal.

This Gold Metal was one of the highlights of Olympic Games.
