Glen and Jo Tuckett listen during the memorial as family, friends and former team members gather to honor former BYU football coach Lavell Edwards at a memorial service at the Provo Convention Center on Friday, Jan. 6, 2017.

Glen Tuckett turns 90 this year, and at a reception honoring his legacy, more than a hundred of his former BYU baseball players patiently took turns shaking his hand, thanking him for his impact on their lives.

They traded stories and fading memories and saluted their leader last weekend.

It was a moment frozen in time. A reminder, he would say, of his Camelot.
