November 14, 1970
On November 14, 1970 the plane carrying the Marshall University football team crashed in Wayne County, West Virginia, killing all on board.
I was nine years old.
I was born in Huntington and lived in Wayne. The devastation was felt throughout our community.
On than rainy, dreary day I knew I would someday attend Marshall. In the mid eighties my wife, Patricia, and I graduated from Marshall and the memorial was still a big part of our community. My daughters tell me they want to be part of the Big Green as well.
May all the sons and daughters of Marshall remember and reflect on this day.
