Easter Prayers for Hector and His Family

Coach Hector used to help out with intermediates, around 2004-7. Originally from Colombia, I believe he moved out to Oklahoma by the end of February of '07. Recently, I found out that he suffered a work-related head injury back in June of 2008. He has total amnesia. If anyone has any pictures or videos, let me know. His wife, Maria, is trying to collect them up. I do have stuff to share with her, of course, being the hobbyist film-maker that I am.



I remember once, going to a Cuban restaurant with him after teaching, and it was the most in-depth conversation I had with him on technical aspects of gymnastics and teaching. Actually, the conversation was mostly one-way, as I didn't always understand his English, and just nodded along with what he was trying to communicate. He knew quite a bit, but the language-barrier made it difficult for him to transmit his knowledge base to the class.
