SUMMERDALE — The residents at the Alabama Sheriff's Boys Ranch in Summerdale got a special treat last week.

Former University of Alabama and NFL standout Jeremiah Castille paid a visit to the facility Friday and brought a message of inspiration, along with some special Christmas gifts.

"One of the board members on our foundation, Drew Crouse, has been involved with the Boys Ranch for several years," Castille said. "He asked me if we could do some Christmas stuff for the boys ranch. This is kind of what we do with our foundation in encouraging youth, so it just kind of fits in.
