Thanks for the link.That is one of the most heart breaking events I have ever witnessed. I am glad however that I witnessed it. GOD is really loading up HIS Sooner All-Heaven team for the BIG GAME.

You can also watch the video from the page if you missed the live service. I just watched the video. Probably one of the most beautiful and moving services I have ever seen.

A heartfelt thank you to the Box family for allowing the memorial service video to be posted and available for those of us who missed the live service.

Beautiful service. Really puts things in perspective.

Until we see you again Austin, soar high my friend.

Lovely service, and the video with the two songs was a beautiful tear jerker. Blessings to Austin, his family, and friends, and thank you to the family for sharing this service with all of us.

"It's been a pleasure, and it's been an honor to coach your son," Venables said to the Box family, which included sisters Courtney and Whitney. "He stood for what was right. He had a purity about him. And I promise you to challenge our players and our team to keep his spirit and dream of being an Oklahoma Sooner alive."

So glad the preacher challenged those that are judging him, you rarely see that

Thank you for sharing the link to the story about the memorial services.

[OK2U]

Really moving service. Humbled my Friday right quick.
According to John Hoover of the Tulsa World, Jamell Fleming and Marcus Trice were both at the funeral. Good to hear.

[TXBOOMER]

Stoops and Venables are strong men. Feel so sorry for the Box family.

[SoonerNate]

Well I cried. So long Mister 12, we will always love you.

As did I. That was powerful. We will miss you 12.

[SoonerOX]

I wasn't able to post until know. I am speechless. God Bless Austin Box and his family from North Carolina.

[SoonerofAlabama]

I can't believe all of the darkness that is swarming the Sooners right now. Prayers for the Everage family, the Box family, the Venables family, and all other families affected by the recent storms or a death in the family.
