So sad! Percy--we had the best conversation at a Sac hi gathering a couple of years ago. We talked about current stuff and then about PE boxing class where he kicked my, well, you know but when the bell rang we hugged with the greatest respect for one another. We both laughed out loud. Rest in peace Percy; but when I get there have the gym ready. Love Ralph Petersen.

Per Thomas (Tom) Kim:

Percy and I ran together in the fat man relay at Hughs Stadium. He was fast and anchored the 4 man team. He was a friendly and authentic person. He played football. I played basketball. We crossed paths in high school many times.

Percy was good friend . I Learned so much from him when we were playing football together. He was one the strongest guys on the team. We would stay on the field after practice and he would teach me all these different techniques. It really made me a better player. I will miss seeing him. Rest in peace my friend.
