Today I Paid My Respects To Coach Roy Gage. It Was A Sentimental Time, As I Also Got To See Jr, His Wife, And Daughter , Should I Say The Coaches Daughter- Aka Shannon Gave, One Of My Favorite Student Athletes At Central High. I Sat With/,Roy About A Month Ago, And We Remembered The Good Times As Coaches, And Even The Bad Times . We Laughed As He Lie In His Hospital Bed. We Shared Some Of The Same Disapiontments As It Relates To Dose Haters. You Know Who You Aret. Back To Coach Gage. One Of The Best People I Ever Met. Man, We Keep Losing The Legends , Even Those Who Had Miles To Go/ Before We Sleep”!. I Can Get Deeper But This Ain’T The Time. As I Sit Here And Have A Drink In His Remembrance. I Thank God For Giving Me The Opportunity To Cross His Pass, Or Vice Verda.I Wasn’T An Alpha, Or A Kappa, Or A Qdogg, But Am Member Of The Oklahona Coaches Association, A Frat In Its Own Right. I Mentored His Kids, Grandkids, Etc. From There I Learned To Honor The Man- Roy Cornelius Gage- Rest Peace, I Did My Best To Ride W/ You To The End/ Coach Burksðÿ‘Š

To The Family Of Roy Cornelius Gage, Sr: Matthew 5:4 – Blessed Are They That Mourn; For They Shall Be Comforted. I Was Saddened To Hear Of Roy’S Passing. I Met Roy A Few Years Ago At The Pool At The Hutcherson Ymca. He Would Later Join Water Aerobics And Would Become A Regular Pool Buddy. I Remember Asking Him His Last Name And When I Spelled It, He Said I Got It Right Cause Some People Like To Put A “U” In It. He Was A Very Thoughtful And Kind Man. Over The Years, I Would Often Run Into Him And His Wife At Many Funerals. He Will Be Missed. My Thoughts And Prayers Are With You During This Time. May The Fond Memories You Hold Dear Bring A Smile To Your Face And Lighten Your Heart In The Days, Weeks, Months And Years Ahead. Much Love, Brenda Shaw-Morris
