Show Notes

John Lium, a towering offensive lineman for Notre Dames 1966 national championship team, passed away at 80. Despite a long illness, he faced his end with grace. Lium, standing at 65, earned a scholarship to Notre Dame after excelling at Cardinal Farley Military Academy. He joined the Irish in 1963, contributing to their remarkable turnaround under coach Ara Parseghian, culminating in a national title in 1968. Post-graduation, Lium played for the New York Giants, pursued a law degree, and even acted in commercials. In 1999, he survived sudden cardiac arrest and established the Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Research Foundation. Donations to the foundation in his memory are encouraged.
