Shawn Springs' father Ron passes away
Just saw this on twitter from Kelli Johnson
"Kelli Johnson My thoughts & prayers go out to Shawn Springs & his family... After the passing of Ron Springs, 54, who's been in a coma the past 3.5 yrs" Prayers out to the Springs family.

Re: Shawn Springs' father Ron passes away
Read my custom user title and you'd have seen it over an hour ago
But I disgress, tragic loss. I know the Springs family had been suffering a lot over the past several years. And as much as some may say well he's not suffering anymore, it's still difficult for everyone. Thoughts and prayers with the Springs

Re: Shawn Springs' father Ron passes away
Tough, tough, loss, especially considering how avoidable it could have been.
RIP, Ron Springs.

Re: Shawn Springs' father Ron passes away
RIP Ron Springs & all the best to the Springs family as they remember him.
I grew up w/some of his cousins, he's from my hometown - Williamsburg, Va. Although Lawrence Taylor is also from Williamsburg, only Ron Springs has a road named after him. My high school coach coached him a decade + earlier & always spoke fondly of him. I remember that last Woody Hayes OSU game. Ron was on that team as I recall. It never bothered me that he was a cowboy, was just proud that he came from my hometown. When Shawn Springs came to the Skins it was kinda fitting, since Shawn was also born in Williamsburg I believe, then grew up in northern va. in Skins country. |
