It was my pleasure to be a student of Mr Hagerman at Marist back in the 1980’s. I have great memories of him in geography class and as a track coach. He certainly made a wonderful impact on many people thru his years as a tacher. We will remember him and his family in his prayers.
Coach Hagerman was my football, baseball, and varsity soccer coach at Bass High School in Atlanta, 1962-63-64. He was a kind, competitive, and patient coach and teacher. One of many fond memories I have of him is the time we were doing wind sprints at the end of a fall football practice and he joined in, running backwards and still outpacing everyone on the squad. He was obviously a very gifted athlete. I thank God for blessing me with the opportunity to participate in sports with Coach Hagerman. Rest in peace, Coach, and someday we’ll all suit up again with you leading the way.
