re: If you’re someone who prays, a special Aggie could use your faith right now

Many prayers.

Here's my personal RC story. Phil Bennett's wife Nancy was my mothers roommate at A&M. Many of you may remember that Phil was DC under coach Slocum at A&M. Well while Phil was at Kansas State, Nancy was struck by lightning and passed.

The funeral was held in a neighboring town to my hometown and my parents were tasked with picking a few people up from our local airport to take to the funeral. I was allowed to join, and from outside the private jet walks RC Slocum and Dat Nguyen. As a huge aggie fan 12 year old, I am much more giddy than I should be for such an occasion. After what probably seemed like 100 questions to both RC and Dat on the drive to the funeral, my mother scolded me and said it wasn't the time for that. RC put his arm around me and said "Son, you can talk to me whenever you want" and gave me his card with direct office number and email address.

Really great guy, and praying for he and his family. You can beat this coach.
