HONORS TEAM AND
MEMORIALIZES
FALLEN TEAMMATE

| Who: |
Donalsonville,
LA
native, Jarvis
Green,
#97 for
the 3-time
World
Champion
New
England
Patriots |
| When: |
Thursday,
November
15, 2007 |
| Where: |
Gillette
Stadium
One
Patriot
Place
Foxborough,
MA
02035-1388 |
| What: |
In honor
of the
Patriot's
current
season, Green will
give his
teammates
T-Shirts
emblazoned
with a "60
Minute
Men"
logo,
which
not only
speaks
to his
team's "Play
the
entire
60
minutes
of the
game, no
matter
what"
mantra,
but also
references
the
patriotic
volunteer
units of
the
American
Army
during
the
Revolutionary
War who
were
ready
for
battle
at a
moment's
notice.
Additionally,
the
shirts
will
feature
a small
insignia
that
says "in
memory
of
Marquise
Hill"
with the
number
91,
paying
tribute
to the
lineman
they
lost in
a tragic
accident
during
the off
season. |
| Why: |
In
addition
to
gifting
his
teammates
with the
T-shirts, Jarvis
Green will
make
additional
shirts
available
for sale
at local
retailers.
A
portion
of the
profits
will be
put into
a trust
fund for
Marquise's
two year
old son,
Máshy,
and his
family.
Since
Marquise's
untimely
passing,
Jarvis
has
filled
in as a
surrogate
father
for the
toddler
and has
pledged
his
support
going
forward.
This
summer,
Máshy
will be
Christened
with
Green
and his
wife as
his
godparents. |
