Default Thank you!!!!!!

This forum is simply amazing. Bob - that's him! He is currently laid up in the first few weeks of a lengthy and painful recovery. He had never seen that photo before, or the YouTube clip, and he was absolutely ecstatic. I spoke with him for an hour today and seeing those images and reliving that day was the greatest therapy he could have. I can't thank you enough.

The picture I was originally searching for from the Trib was taken from a distance and my friend is just a small image behind Jody Davis. But the UPI photo you posted is much better. He said sharing that picture and the video with his two sons (diehard baseball fans of course) today was a moment that he'll remember for a long time.

Thank you all so much for taking the time to reply. You have no idea how much I appreciate it.
