Billy mannn one day you told me “it’s a great day to be a mountaineer”
All of the times I didn’t have the energy to get up and practice or play I would tell myself those words as a reason to get up and be great. Rest easy Coach Hahn, save a spot up there for me! 💜 https://t.co/NMgLnXu6oT

Billy Hahn answered the phone every time I called. And if he missed it he always called back.

Means a lot to a guy like me that a guy like that always had time for me.

RIP. Yo Dawg! https://t.co/NZkhWn3Xqg
