Franklin, I always enter to this page in order to follow you... Today I entered and when I saw the interview I felt so inspired, so surprised, and so proud of you and the way you talk about me.
Franklin, for me you are like a son too...

You are the wrestler that every coach would like to have and you are the son that every father dream to hug.

What a great deal.....to have Coach Pedro who gives direction for many aspects of life: education...discipline....study habits....wrestling.... practice....GOALS....

Love to hear Franklin state that when he does well it is a reflection of his whole support network. Hooray for his Mom, too. He's an inspiration.
