Ozzie loved softball and we are sure he is playing short stop for the heavenly team.  We imagine him pulling up to the ballpark in his Corvette with Neil Diamond playing in the background on a Hot August Night!

In lieu of flowers, please make memorials to St. Jude Children's Hospital.

Finally, to all the members of CHAA, The Godfather has passed.  Please ring the bell.
