Hi Mariss,

We all make mistakes and experience moral lapse.  Yes, it is important to speak well of people following their passing.

Hi JPT,

Yes, people who are passive aggressive are challenging.  I have been reading your blog.  Your family and your brother are in my prayers.

He was a great man in most respects.  He suffered at a very rough time for his moral lapse, which was appropriate in this case.  Now I feel it is right to speak well of the departed.

Tickets, REALLY!!! I heard that people want him to be remembered for the good he did as a coach.  He also needs to be remembered for giving things to his grandchildren when his wife had said no!  This is a passive aggressive act to be seen in a better light than the other person and/or undermine their authority.  In my opinion a character flaw such as that supersedes the perceived "great coach" persona.
