Verl Heap Memories

January 5, 2009
When I moved to Arizona and began coaching basketball in 1969 one of the names that I heard was the best in the state was Verl Heap. I took the time to seek out this coach and pick his brain about basketball-this was a good choice and am thanful that he took the time to sspend with me. My prayers to the family and God speed.

Thanks Coach Heap for being my first coach (1952) and for being such an inspiration to all the students lives you touched over your many years of dedicated service to the education community. You always exhibited great loyalty to your former students and community by your examples set. My families prayers go out to your wonderful family and may God be with you always. Rest in peace.
