“Be true to yourself. Make each day a masterpiece. Help others. Drink deeply from good books. Make friendship a fine art. Build a shelter against a rainy day.” -John Wooden carried this note with him everywhere, written by his dad. He was a true and great Hoosier!

That's beautiful, thank you for posting.

RIP to a truly great man where it counted, on the inside.

I live in Martinsville, so this whole town is saddened by the news, he certainly was the greatest man who came from here. WE wERE asked last week if the Highway Dept. could put up a nice sign on our property by the road because it is the John Wooden Memorial Parkway or something, we told them it would be an honor to have it there.
