Earlier today we lost one of the founding members of AHSFHS.org. My friend Mike Naugher passed away in Piedmont. He was here from the beginning of AHSFHS.org and instrumental in getting all this going many years ago.
Mike was an avid Piedmont Bulldog fan who filmed the games for them over the years and did so much more for the program. He did a lot of the research in that area from Anniston to Fort Payne and Gadsden and all the schools in between.
I had the privilege to meet Mike a few times over the years and he was always pleasant and eager to chat about the Bulldogs or Alabama football. I am sure the folks around Piedmont feel as if they have lost a good one today.
My prayers are with the family as I know he will be greatly missed by the community.
Didn't really know him that well, but I saw him post sometimes and you (David) told me how important he was to the start of this place. I hate to hear this and hopefully the rest of us users can honor his memory by carrying on his work here. My condolences.
I had the privilege of meeting Mike a few times over the last 5 years when I was doing media coverage in East Alabama. Definitely a great man who loved his bulldogs and football in general. The Piedmont community lost a good guy, as did we all here at AHSFHS.
Prayers & Condolences go out to his loved ones.
