Neondion1 10 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 Very sorry to hear of your family's loss along with the Big Creek family and War community. I played for Coach Poletti in 1985 & 86. Those were some good teams and Coach was hard nosed. He wanted the best from you and expected nothing less. Coach always wanted the best from his players, coaches, and himself. I will NEVER forget seeing Coach at his happiest; when you were working your butt off. The sligh grin that would come across his face along with "good job" sort of grunt. Just when you thought you could give no more Coach would bring more out of you, the sign of a great leader. Every player wanted to please Coach Poletti and make him proud. The tradition at BC will never be lost whether the school closes or another game is ever played. Coach Poletti's tradition and legend only add to the long history of the Big Creek program. It was an honor and privelage to wear the green & white and know every Friday night during the season you had the complete support of the entire school and community. Days go by but those memories will last a lifetime. RIP Coach Poletti. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beaverbaseball 10 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2006 thank you all..i guess its just now really setting in that he is gone..he was my bestfriend..i would call him after every game to tell him what happened..im going to miss him He was a great coach, a great friend, a great husband, a great dad, a great teacher, a great grandpa and so much more...I remember he would tell all his player to "stay strong" or "be tough"..and thats what i've been trying to do is stay strong..He has been taking care of my grandma for 12 years and he said the one thing he couldn't live with was seeing her die...i guess he got his wish.. R.I.P grandpa...I'll see you again one day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
