"I don't know who put us in touch with him,'' Laryn said. "At that point, I was just in awe. God is working miracles here because this just doesn't happen."
Ivie understands. After Jordan's death, people he didn't know reached out and made the toughest days a little better.
He is glad to pay it forward.
"I never realized how inspiring things like that can be,'' he said. "It was a real heartfelt meeting. As players at a big university like this, we have to remember that so many people look up to us and it’s important to be able to help people and inspire them.
"I let them know I relate to their situation. Their son was such a huge Gator fan. That is one of the biggest memories they have, just how much he loved the Gator football program.”
