I recall hearing the news when I was a kid. Was impossible to get my mind around it then and still now, really. Such sadness. RIP to a great man.

Still a role model 50 years post-mortem. RIP Roberto.

Roberto Clemente was my first favorite vintage player to collect. My mom gave me the pictured '59 when I was about 12. I'm sure this was her way of imparting some of the values he stood for upon me. It is a card I'll never part with.
He so transcended the game and is someone we can all look up to, regardless of our own background. |

Here are some of my holy relics related to baseball’s Patron Saint. I don’t often get to post over here. Thanks for indulging me.
