SPEAKERS Dr. Hal Habecker

One of my heroes has always been coached John Wooden from UCLA. His he was an impeccable credit coach. But he was also an impeccable Christian, who loved his players and gave Himself to them in the late 60s Lew Alcindor from Brooklyn, comes to UCLA, he became the greatest scoring center Kareem Abdul Jabbar in the NBA. In our President Obama gave him the Medal of Freedom in the White House. After coach wouldn't die. He said, I wish coach John Wooden and he made all the difference in my mind. I don't care what your profession is. You may be a basketball coach. You may be a teacher, you whatever it is, we have the opportunity as aging people to build in the lives of the next generation.
