Any cause of death?  Did Saprano have health problems.

 

2 unique facts I’ll always remember about him.  He worse sunglasses 24/7 because he had an accident while he was working in a fast food joint as a high school student.  I believe grease burned up his eyes and he was sensitive to light.  If this accident happened in 2018, he’s be a rich man.

 

The other is his name.  My friend and many other would see his name and call him “Tony Soprano” lead character from The Sopranos.  LOL

The first thing I thought of when I read this thread title was, “yeah, Tony Saprano died a few years ago”.

 

RIP, coach.

His 2008 dolphins team was somewhat fascinating. Killed Belichick’s D with the wildcat. 

 

...never knew why he always wore sunglasses....suffered some serious burn eye injury as a teen....sadly missed....56 is way too young.......

And they died in a similar fashion if I recall

A guy I knew died similarly at the same age. Didn't even complain of pains beforehand. Just collapsed all of a sudden and that was it.

 

It's weird how your reality can change in the blink of an eye. Your closest friend, who you think you have a long future with, just disappears.

The coaching profession is so stressful and long hours. I think it takes a toll on health, it’s important to manage the stress and he may have been trying but wonder if that was a factor.

RIP Coach.

Peace to his family.

 

56 hits a little too close for some of us.

Cherish every day. I'm 59 and lost 2 close friends in their mid 50's.
