People shared their incredible stories of a beloved high school coach in Southwest Florida during a celebration of his life.
Even when track coach Guy Thomas was in the hospital, families told us he was still calling and checking up on his student-athletes at Dunbar High School and even doing what he could to get them scholarships. Thomas died of COVID-19 recently.
A speaker at the vigil held in his honor Friday night said he wanted Thomas’ name on every hurdle at Dunbar High. The athletic director said that’s something that will absolutely happen.
