Job W. Price - Class of 1989 - Commander Navy SEAL Team Four. Job lost his life while in service to our country. As a student-athlete, Job was recognized by his peers and teachers as self motivated, focused, and discipline. We enjoyed his sense of humor and wiliness to always lend a helping hand. He refused to accept
anything but his best effort but could always have the ability to laugh at himself and with others. Job understood the importance of placing the greater good above self and dedicated his career to helping to ensure our freedoms. His family lost a son, brother, husband and father. Our country has lost a leader, dedicated patriot, true
American hero and protector of our freedoms. Because of Job and all of the other members of our military we can slept save at night, enjoy our freedoms and pursue a life filled with happiness. Their courageous service and sacrifice should be honored by all of us every day. Job is gone but will not be forgotten his wit, wisdom and leadership will live on in the deeds of all of those that he came in contact with and has inspired and motivated.
