I saw that and a lump formed in my throat.

I had not heard that it had gotten worse.

Akiller is going to claim a killer!

From what I heard it has just taken a turn for the worst as of late.

Remember this man was ahead of ruths he pace till a injury sidetracked him. The only player. With more 40 plus he seasons is Ruth and you will never find a nicer human being on the face of they earth
