My heart is breaking with the news of Brian Hamler passing away. Brian was a great man who loved Whitehall and loved the students of Whitehall. Brian was one of my biggest supporters in announcing and gave me the nickname “the voice”. He always said it’s not a Whitehall game unless I’m calling it whether it was in person or on Facebook Live. He always looked forward to a broadcast or a game with me calling it. We truly lost a great man who’s going to be hard to replace. My prayers go out to everyone who knows Brian and to the family. As we always say ONCE A RAM ALWAYS A RAM!!!

I am so terribly saddened today. The world has lost a bright light. I have known Mr. Brian Hamler for most of my life. He was my principal when I attended Beechwood Elementary, and then he later became superintendent of Whitehall City Schools. Outside of school, Mr. Hamler was a great friend of my family, he grew up with my dad and uncles. Mr. Hamler helped progress our schools, and enriched this community beyond comprehension. He will be greatly missed.
