I am so saddened to hear of the passing of Ms Geri, after her battle with cancer. I am friends of her sister, Patti. Continued thoughts and prayers for the Collins family, Duke Football family and friends and fans, and the Elon Community and Football team, where the Collins met, and where Jim played Football.
