 A wonderful Movie ..

I new nothing about the event till 1996 when I had the pleasure of working  with Marti Carelli-Gilbert. She was the wife of  Albert Carl Carelli Jr.  the Offensive Line Coach of the 1970 Marshall Football team.. She was left to raise their two boys by herself.. 


To see what Marti Carelli-Gilbert is doing these days.
Visit: http://www.grandmascampusa.com/


In the Dedication section of the site you can purchase "Halftime" Marti's  touching & inspirational story how  she coped with the tradgedy.


BTW..  There was a Coach  Paul `Bear' Bryant connection as well to the 1970 team several of the players killed were from Tuscaloosa, Alabama..  They were pointed toward Marshall by none other than Bryant himself.
