got word today that Patsi Pulliam passed away. For those who dont know, she was the long time matriarch of Fork Union Military Academy,my almamarta. Mrs. pulliam was the life long partner to Col. Red Pulliam---the Head post graduate footbal coach ( ( the only prep school coach to produce TWO heisman winners ) and the commandant of cadets for decades. I fondly remember her as always being a soft touch to the cadets,,back in the day when the academy was a pretty tough place for young men===as in no cell phones.internet,or other things our youth enjoy today. It was not the kinder softer ;spoil the child pace it is today.( and I know what I;m talking about!!) however,,,we could always count on mrs. Pulliam to be a sweet mother type figure when we were down or homesick or the ike. She will always hold a fond place in my heart---and My thoughts are with her famiy--
