One of Manhood From The Hood’s most enthusiastic fans in Coach Denny Welter!
As we told you last week, Coach Welter has spent a career teaching young people how to use the same life values Bill Roddy’s grandfather shared with Bill when Bill was young.
Coach Welter agrees that sometimes the thoughtful gestures of kindness and support from adults can help a young person thrive:
“My high school basketball coach, Merlyn Kinkel, would give me and the other kids who lived out in the country a ride home from practice. There wasn’t a late bus to take us home in those days. That thoughtful act allowed us to play basketball when we might not otherwise have been able.”
