Watching Pace’s Son Introduce His Father

As a kid, it’s never easy to deal with public speaking–which is why Justin Pace deserves all of the credit in the world for what he did during Saturday’s festivities.

Pace had asked his son Justin to be the presenter for Saturday’s induction and without question, he did a phenomenal job setting the stage up for his father. What made this moment even more special was seeing how proud Pace was of his son for being the family spokesman and how happy he was to see this special memory take place to be carried on for the rest of his life.

One day, Justin will be able to tell the story to his future kids about how he introduced their grandfather at the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton–which is simply awesome to think about. This was clearly a special moment for the Pace family and Justin looked like a natural with the introduction for his father.
