First, thank you for writing the wonderful memories you had with Mr Mason. It shows clearly how respected and loved he really was. I hope he knew that.
I remember Mr Mason in gym class when I first moved to Dryden in 1984. He drove me NUTS with what I viewed as a pure chauvinistic attitude. Then I really SAW what the girls in my class were like. Preferring to "walk the track" or sit and pick all the grass around them in the outfield when we played softball. WHAT?! I wanted to hit! Give me that bat! Mr Mason was surprised, but he let me actually play. I could hit really good, but not run so fast, and he never gave me grief.
I remember playing volleyball in the gym and being able to play "with the guys" little did I know Mr Mason had taught all the guys the Mason classic move... wait until the commit to a block and then pop it -just- over their heads/hands and drop it like a stone right behind them! I LOVED it! I also learned a LOT about volleyball, even though I was never on the school team. I played adult co-ED volleyball after high school and still love it today.
I think Mr Mason was a great guy. He will be fondly remembered. RIP Mr Mason, you are missed.

Coach Mason! A presence in the community.. He may be gone in body, but not in mind and spirit. Was astounded that anyone with his talent would want to come to DRYDEN to teach and coach. But here he stayed. Our family was friends. We vacationed in Canada..he was still "Coach". Always a cigar and well we all know what was in the other hand...but who cared! He was Coach Mason. Respected, loved, hated, and awed. I was glad to have known him and grow up with him...I also was very glad I was a girl and he wasn't my coach! We have countless pictures...a tall, strong, good-looking, opiniated man. I am blessed that I can remember him like that. My heart goes out to Barb, Bobby, and Craig. They've lived too much heart-ache...but hopefully people letting him know that they loved him, respected him, and remember him will be a comfort for them in this time of sorrow. Good-by Coach..you will never be forgotten

Great piece. You failed to mention his forehand stroke with "The Board of Education" however. I can attest it was world class ;{)

RIP Coach...and thanks...I needed that.

The tribute you wrote on your blog was very touching....I hope he knew how much he was admired by those of us that grew up in the days when "coach" meant only one man if you lived in Dryden.

I am sick and tired of people who say that if you debate and you disagree with this administration somehow you're not patriotic. We should stand up and say we are Americans and we have a right to debate and disagree with any administration.

Glad you're back! I only recently discovered your blog, and I was disappointed to read that you were quitting. Fortunately, I hadn't removed you from my bookmarks!

Exactly right when it comes to government. ESPECIALLY with the new ones coming in.
