Dick LeBeau comes home

 A friend forever.
That was an overwhelming sentiment Saturday night as London football legend Dick LeBeau was honored at his hometown high school - a place that will eventually have a field house that will bear his name. The evening - ?A Night with the Coach? - served as a fundraiser for that project, and was spearheaded by a group led by current LHS football coach Bill Dennis.
Close to 500 high school, college and National Football League teammates, friends, and admirers were on hand to pay tribute to his contributions to their lives.
?Everything he touches, he leaves it better than he found it,? said Cincinnati Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis of his mentor and friend. ?That is the special mark of the man.?
Last year, in season number 50 in the NFL as either a player or a coach, everything LeBeau?s Pittsburgh defense touched turned to gold.
Actually, it turned to diamonds as LeBeau proudly showed his now-two Super Bowl rings - the most recent of which he earned this past winter as his Steelers defeated Arizona for the World Championship.
After close to a dozen people from LeBeau?s storied past and present showered him with accolades (as well as reminding him of some humorous moments), the man of honor addressed the crowd in the same humble way all in attendance have grown to love.
?I?d never ask you to pay ten cents to see me,? LeBeau said. ?But if it?s anything to do with London, we?re going to go.?
LeBeau?s admiration for his hometown is widely known. That fact was evidenced by some of the comments supplied by videotape from current Ohio State University football coach Jim Tressel.
?It there is one thing you taught us,? Tressel said, ?never forget about where you come from.?
And where LeBeau has come from has obviously not forgotten about him either.
