Article updates inspiring story

To the editor:

Thank you so much for your recent update article on Central High School football standout Monroe Hicks. I am a sixth-grade teacher who has been reading Bob Miller's article about Hicks to my students ever since it originally appeared in your paper. The students love the article and always find it so inspiring, but they always ask me what happened to Monroe. Until now I haven't been able to tell them anything. We're glad he's back in Cape Girardeau and wish him much success on the Southeast Missouri State University football field and off.
