MSNBC - Even in death, Tillmans are brothers in arms: "Pat Tillman's loyalty is legendary. One of his best friends in high school, Sachin Shah, was a basketball player who was unable to play because of a heart murmur. Frandsen, the coach, had Shah work as an assistant until his senior year, then allowed him to suit up and play Senior Night.
The Leland gym was packed. Frandsen allowed Tillman to sit behind the bench. When Shah came off the floor, Tillman, in tears along with most of the crowd, embraced his friend.
Afterward, Tillman approached Frandsen, 'Coach, I just want you to know that what you did, for one of my brothers, is the most gracious thing I've ever seen.'"

So many heroes surround us each day.
