Funeral Arrangements
Here is the funeral information for long-time football security chief Xavier Suazo, who died Tuesday morning of heart failure. He was 72.
A Catholic mass and funeral for Suazo will be held on Thursday, Dec. 29, at 10 a.m. at St. Vincent Catholic Church (621 W. Adams, Los Angeles 90007). A reception will follow immediately at a location that will be announced at the service.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made in his name to either the USC athletic department or to Loyola High School.
Say NOBS, you were the only one who commented on this gentleman, calling him the X-man, or something like that. Apparently you knew him or knew him by reputation.
What was he like? Perhaps you have an anecdote or two.
DUDE, LJ, I'm an INSIDER! Wake up. He was a great guy in charge of ALL security for the football team. Home and Away. Former cop. Great guy. Married to M.A.S. Scotty knows I'm a TRUE insider.
Thanks
LJ, in all seriousness, Xman was one of the nicest guys you'd ever want to meet. He loved SC Football, from the best players to the coaches to guys at the bottom, like me. He'd do anything to help you out. He'd been sick for a year or two (Big C) but you'd never know it. All business. Wonderful wife, another true Trojan supporter. They were all SC all the time.
RIP X-Man!
Nobs, I'm pretty sure Lawyer John's question was sincere and not sarcastic. Why the hair-trigger?
By the way, someone gave me a Kindle recently, so I am now able to download your autobiography "Nobs: The Life & Times of an INSIDER" as soon as you make it available online.
Finally the respect I truly deserve!
