Now he is he backfield coach for Parkview High School, which has one of the winnings football programs in the country. When I contacted Steve recently to set up this article, he asked me if I remembered him. Here is what I wrote to him:<br> Coach Brooks, I have always held you in high esteem as a coach and as a man. But it is your example as a father that I cherish most about our acquaintance. I ill always remember looking down at your son Craig in his crib when I stayed in your home. I was overcome and lifted by the Holy Spirit. <br>You see, at this same time I also had a son who was just a baby in a crib. My son, Mark, was ealthy. Steve s son was born without eyes or an esophagus. In addition, Craig s brain was not fully functional nor would it ever be normal. It was suggested that Craig be placed under institutional care where he wasn t expected to live very long. Some even hinted at just letting little Craig pass on. However, to Steve and his wife Carol, their son was special and God s gift to them. Craig would be raised at home and be greatly loved. I was filled with emotion and gratitude for two things: First, for my son being healthy and second, for Steve s wonderful example. <br>On the recommendations of Dr. Charley Howell, Craig went through several operations and survived. Recently, Coach Brooks gave me an update and sent me a photo of his son. Craig will be 17 this June; my son Mark will turn 17 in July. Craig can hold hands with his dad and walk around the track. He smiles and can even say a few words. Steve credits his wife Carol as the one who has made Craig s life what it is today.  She has done all of the hard work, he said.  Craig s special ed teacher April has also been a true miracle worker. <br>As I looked at the photo and pondered over life s bigger picture, I reflected upon the importance of gratitde and families.<br>I finished my letter to Steve:  I know that in the afterlife Craig s body and mind will be restored. I know he will thank you for being the father that you are. Families are a forever thing. Later, Steve called me and told me he has the same feelings. <br>It s a good time now to remember our families and treasure them. Time to take a few moments to think beyond our everyday problems and focus on the big picture. <br><br>Time to be grateful.<br>he course of the 2002 season.<br><br>Power Axiom #4 <br>We have a date with destiny.<br><br>November 22, 2002. Camp Randall Stadium. Madison, Wisconsin. The Somerset Spartans had battled to the 2002 Division 5 State Football Championship game. Somerset had traveled 250 miles to Madison to play Marshall. More importantly, the Spartans had traveled one year for a date with destiny. It began with a group of ordinary boys working together to achieve the extraordinary. Before a crowd of more than 2,500 Somerset fans (community population: 1,556), the Spartans set out to fulfill what they believed could be done: win the championship.
