What does it mean to be on a mission?What does it mean to be a gentleman warrior?How could one man of character's mission be so powerful and infectious that it would influence generations upon generations to become their own gentleman warrior to their own global mission?One man can and did, as well as two others who joined him to create three more who double their number. This group of individuals quickly double theirs who in turn, double theirs, until over the past 70 years, a battalion of Gentleman warriors, marched onward and into the nights of life to bring the Gentleman's light of passion to all they could reach.This is the true story of one simple man and his brothers who had one gift to give and who gave it well every day of their passionate walk among the Virginia gridiron grasses and the Tiger Valley's wooded passes. These gentleman warriors knew the secret of making chicken salad out of Chicken PShaw. They knew how to connect the pauper with the prince to serve his school, his family, and his community in humble victorious engagements while he mesmerized all with his passionate smile of genuine respect for the best in all he met.They may have been hall of famers on the athletic fields during their day, this was a label of accomplishment for certain, however, their glory and honor came with their daily battles to help us become better human beings by just being ourselves. Coach Fulton, even on his last hospital bedside days in Richmond as our Leader, found a way to inspire the doctors, nurses, and bedpan collectors. He made all who met him fill like a KING or a QUEEN. NOTHING was NOT IMPORTANT! Nothing....This Collection of stories is nothing more than true accounts about Stokeley Fulton, Louis Wacker, and Bobby Saylor, their family of brothers, sisters, children, coaches, players, and friends. This book reveals how they went about the Business of Life! If you want to know about what makes men move mountains with their bare hands; If you want to know what creates victories against the most insurmountable odds; if you want to know how to live with the Zen in all that you do; If you want to know how to stand tall and risk, it all...... then you will have so much fun with the stories that we are about to share.Stokeley happened to be the leader on paper for the Three Amigos. He loved and idolized every human being that walked the pathways of the school and everything associated with the dream of the school. He would be the first to say that credit went to someone else. His coaches were smarter, the professors more noble, the players more talented, the ladies more pretty than anything he could bring to the table. He just enjoyed being with the band of brothers and he would give his last breath to the process of winning on and off the battlefields we would walk. He also knew that a special bond existed within the family of men and women of his South-Central Virginia. He knew they all were creating Gentlemen Warriors and he loved it. His brother coaches on the football field were also Hall of Famers, Tiger Campus leaders of men, and leaders of other communities. They too, went on to pass on the secrets of the gentleman warriors. Their young academic/athletic charges from other lands would also go and blossom like Stokeley's roses that he grew in his back yard. (I bet you guys did not know this one! The rough and tough Coach grew roses and gave them away!)The book will show the relationship between a group of men, leaders, followers, workers, partyers, and so much more. Hall of Famers, Average Joes, Geeks, Royalties, and Penniless Poets. Men teaching young men how to be effective, efficient, passionate, respectful, gentleman warriors. Stokely loved them all and all were Super Stars to the Coaches of the Tigers.
