A Statement from Gilmer Buckeyes Head Coach, Jeff Traylor:

"With a heavy heart we mourn the loss of Desmond Pollard who passed away this afternoon. He was a Junior Wide Receiver who wore number 8 just like his brother Darion Pollard did. He also played basketball and ran track. He was the fourth of the Pollard brothers we coached. Devane, Darious, Darrion, and all of his family are in our prayers. We will all miss his sweet smile."

We see through a glass darkly , but Matt now sees the Lord face to face. We will all "in the wink of an eye" experience what he has. May we all be as ready on that day as Matt was on this one.
