Former Lions all over the country hosted family Thanksgiving dinners.
When Nick “Brother” Saban, quarterback of the 1968 Monongah High state
champion football team, invited the family to his Tuscaloosa, Alabama home for
dinner, nearly 200 showed up! The Alabama Crimson Tide football team, coached
by Brother.
Terry Constable Saban, Brother’s wife since 1971, was in charge of the
operation. The Sabans have a son, Nicholas, and a daughter, Kristen, and a
granddaughter, Amelie.
Brother’s sister, Dianna “Dene” Thompson, who gave him the “Brother” nickname, lives
in Worthington and is a Monongah Middle School teacher. Their parents were Mary
Conaway Saban Pasko and the late Nick Saban, Sr., whose Idamay Black Diamonds
Pop Warner football team is legendary. Mary later married Robert Pasko, who
also passed away, in Little River, South
Carolina.
