Unhappy Little Perspective

Hey there fellow officials,

Today (well Friday specifically), was a tough day for our association. We had a young, first year official who died recently in a car accident. He and a friend of his were traveling back from a canceled game. Tonight, we all wore a ribbon on our shirt and read a speech before each varsity game in remembrance.

An article from the local paper:

Two youths killed in car wreck shared love of basketball

Really puts officiating and life in perspective.
