Watch: Players and Coaches give final farewell to Coach Terry Price
Aggieland said goodbye to Coach Terry Price one final time as the processional passed through the Texas A&M Campus after the Celebration of Life service. The service took place on July 8th and had many past and current coaches and players that spoke about TP in high regard and how Terry would want everyone to be strong during this time of grief.
Below are a few of the speakers from the service. Jackie Sherrill, Jimbo Fisher, Tommy Tuberville, Kevin Sumlin, Houston Nutt, Don Dunn, Elijah Robinson, Myles Garrett, Demontre Moore, RC Slocum, Willena Kimpson Price, and Audra Price Pittman.
Coach Terry Price was not only a coach, but he was also a father, a mentor, a great ambassador for Texas A&M, and a top tier cook. The Annual and Legendary Pool party that serves as catalyst in the recruiting momentum will be a little somber as TPs presence and famous BBQ plate will not be on the menu.
However, he would not want the show to stop and eventually, someone else will pick up the responsibility, but even then, Coach Terry Price will forever be the Aggieland Pit Master.
