Jeffery P Hodges wrote a sympathy message

“Coach Snipes was one of my favorite coaches ever. I played football for the Irish from 1969-1971. He was my defensive coach for a couple of those years. He would push you hard but was always encouraging too. Any time me and the old team mates see each other his name always comes up. He is sort of a legend to us. May he rest in peace. You will be missed, coach. Paul Hodges - Class of 72.”
