			Following the '58 season, my dad took me (9 years old) to a father-son event at our temple in my hometown (Norfolk).  Moose Skowron was the guest speaker.  He showed film clips of the '58 WS and gave away signed baseballs.  As a Yankee fan, who had never seen a major leaguer in person, it was a wonderful experience that remains with me to this day.

			That's a great story Mark.  Here's something from back in '58.

			Moose was a very nice man.  I met him several times and was never disappointed.  RIP Moose. He signed this for me TTM last year to complete it. Great guy!

			Moose must have done a lot of speaking over the years.  In the early 80's he came and talked my little league end of season dinner. I was a fan from that moment on. I met him a few more times over the years. Here are two cards I had him sign in January of 2011. He was a great guy and had a lot of great stories!! He will be missed. Jim |
