Here is a link to an article in the Advocate from New Orleans- Baton Rouge area.
http://www.theadvocate.com/new_orlea...7f3a5902d.html I graduated from the same Jesuit High School as Rusty ( a few years later) and I saw him play his first season in Houston at the Astrodome. I have collected just about all of his baseball cards. I think that although he was a pretty good baseball player, he was a better person. He was well liked wherever he played. After baseball, he was involved in many charities and I remember after the 9/11 Attack, his charity, the New York Police and Fire Widow’s Fund, raised 10’s of millions and aided so many impacted by that tragedy. It is a shame there isn’t an Hall Of Fame category for outstanding humanitarian, as he would have surely entered on the first round. He will always be my top sports hero.
