The Passing of Coach Kay Yow

Both of my daughters will be graduates of Clemson University. My brother-in-law was a Morehead Scholar at UNC-Chapel Hill. I grew up in Orange County, North Carolina, home of UNC. My family’s farm is a short drive from Duke University, and I have been a Duke fan most of my life.

This past Saturday she died of cancer at age 66. She had been diagnosed with breast cancer in 1987. The disease recurred three times.
