In Memory

Chuck Gibson

Chuck Gibson attended Paris High and later moved after his Sophomore year to College Station. He later moved back to Paris and worked at PJC. He passed away 6 or 7 years ago, and I think most people would remember him. He was always a good friend to me. Thanks, Garry Davis

Chuck and I got into more trouble - that is what friends are for!! The worst licks I got from coach Davis was when Chuck and I were arm wrestling in class instead of studying!! We were friends from Crockett through high school. His dad and my mom were friends in Paris High in the "old" days.
