Coachbear 30

Larry Geigle wrote this book so that his daughters and grandchildren could understand more about his life. Raised in Beaverton Oregon he had what was in many ways a wonderful and exciting childhood. He was an excellent athlete with a loving family and great friends. But while serving in the navy during the Vietnam War he suffered a severe trauma that would impact the rest of his life-carrying the effects with him even as he became the popular educator and coach with the affectionate nickname: Coachbear 30.After that Larry had to fight his way through life-suffering many defeats but always finding a way to achieve success. He loved sharing with his students what he learned-helping them grow in the face of their own defeats and teaching them that it was okay to celebrate their victories. Coachbear 30: The Life and Times of Coach Larry Geigle may help you too-making you laugh (and maybe cry) along the way.
