Here is the message:
Chris,
Wondering if you could do me a huge favor. Bill Sweeney will be trying to beat my dad's straight wins record this Saturday.
Anyone out there that was coached by, coached against or just knew my dad should give him a shout. He could use the good wishes. Check out http://www.coachherp.com/.
Thanks - Coach Herp's Daughter #2 (Betsy Herp)
Here is info from the site as to why coach needs the well-wishes:
Ubly Football Coach Herp - Gerald F. Herp has been a coach, a father, a brother, an uncle and a friend to many people in this world. As you may know, because you have reached this website, he has been battling some medical problems since July 2009. It began with chest pains, a triple by-pass and finding out in the process that he had liver disease.
During his recovery from heart surgery he has had some setbacks with infections and kidney problems, making him ineligible for a liver transplant. While he is back at home, he needs lots of love, support and prayers to get him through the next six months, at which time he will be revaluated for a live donor liver transplant through the University of Michigan Medical Center. It truely is amazing what the medical community can do.
So we are asking for your help in providing words of encouragement, thoughts, prayers, funny stories about football, baseball and or softball (yes he coached those Ubly girls too!) or just good memories you have about Mr. Gerry Herp. Please be forewarned that whatever you write will be read by the masses and someday may even end up in a book about the "Best Little Coach in Ubly!"
