Congratulations !!Posted at 01/11/2006 08:42:20 By Herb Stebbins (68)
A few days ago Joseph Garcia was named to the second team offensive line "Miami Herald All-Miami-Dade" Football Team. If you have ever watched him play, you would know that he should have been on "the First Team". Anyway, this is quite an honor for Joseph, as well as for his Mom, Cecilia, and his Dad, Manny (Stags 68). I for one, am a proud God Parent. If there were a Stags today, he would be one.

Manny, congratulation you must be a very proud parent. It's certainly an honor to have a son to the All Miami-Dade Football Team. With the huge number of schools in Miami-Dade these days the odds of being named to the team first or second team is very slim. Your son must be an outstanding player and like Herb said if Stags today where still in high schools we would be looking for people with your son's qualities.

Hey Guys;

Thanks a million,"THAT'S MY BOY". As you might imagine I am bursting with pride, Joe has worked very hard the last four years to acomplish what he has; considering he had never put on a football uniform in his life until he got to high school.
He's being looked at by two or three small schools in PA and Virginia, but has been accepted academically to FSU starting this coming summer. Who knows, if his grades are good, Dad might just let him take a semester off and walk on.

I refuse to attend the next Stags reunion. The only way you would ever see me hanging around with you gangsters would be only, if i was giving the chance to meet Manny's wife.

Dear All:
For those that know me, I hope you are sitting down, for those of you who do not, just try to picture this. Ready!!!! I am getting married, yes, I know, for 24 years, I have said never again. Sure did not plan on it happening, but a co-worker here at the College has won my heart forever. Never did I think at 72 years old(as of May 30th),I would be taking this step. He is also 72 and one of the finest persons I have ever known. His wife died two years ago, and as I said, not planned, just happened. I am asking for your prayers, as I feel like my heart is jumping out of my chest. It will be June 21st. at my Church. Just a simple wedding, no attendants, but all of my wonderful family, his family and anyone else that wants to share this special day. I wish some of you could come, but I know Gainesville is a long way from any of you. You are invited. Just please think of me on that day and wish me happiness and good health. I love you. sylvia

Sylvia: Although I know you are breaking the hearts of the many of us who love you to death, this is to let you know we may be jealous as hell but wish you all the very best.

Congratulations on this major moment in your 'new' life... everyone is always the same as they ever were; we just go through more experiences as we get older... this experience will be a wonderful one for you because it sounds like you are full of the happiness you so rightfully deserve...

Oh, and let your Mr. Lucky Boy know you have plenty of us guys still waiting in the wings, so he'll need to get this one just right... I'm sure he already knows!

Love Tim TDT65

I'm so happy for you.
No doubt, Joe has a big smile on his face.
