re: Legendary son of the Deep South Hank Aaron has passed away

I grew up in Atlanta and went to Braves games a lot. Got a couple of autographs from Aaron, one on a sports magazine and the other on my glove. Was proud as hell of that glove autograph. My kid brother took it out to play some catch and left it in the yard for a couple of days, got rained on and washed that autograph right off.

Aaron was a great man and a true gentleman.
