Over the past several years, I have heard and read so many stories about legendary Notre Dame football coach, Ara Parseghian. Countless examples of how he was a truly incredible man. But two things that I’ve read today, so very eloquently, and yet so very simply, explain the “aura of Ara.”
Earth lost a legend, and heaven gained an angel.
The first is from my dear friend Tracey, who met Coach Parseghian with me last fall at the Mike McCoy Ministries golf tournament. She wrote to me, “Earth lost a legend, and heaven gained an angel.” Tracey and I were able to spend time with Coach last year at the Mike McCoy Ministries golf tournament, along with several players who played for Coach Parseghian at Notre Dame.
