MY nephew the Coach
I just wanted to tell you about my husbands nephew. I want you to write the story. Sam Sirianni who died with a very rare deaseace. He was coach at Ft. Myers high school for over thirty years. He was adored as a father figure to all his football players. At the celebration of his life many of his former players showed up, some in tears' to remember him. They named part of the athletic building after him and are in the process of having a life size statue of him at the school. They award a scholarship in his name every year.
I am not a writer but I think his story should be told. For full details of his life please contact Ft. Myers high school in Ft. Myers Florida. also his wife Margaret Sirianni at (239) 334-4831.
I don't believe I did this the right way but I didn'y know how else to do it.
