King of useless information
He was a friend of mine and I know many have played while he umpired. He was a tough umpire and sometimes a wise guy, but in the cointext of things, it was all in fun and after the game, he was a good down to earth man who was a lot of fun to be with. Keep his family in your prayers. I am in shock as I knew he was sick, he had cancer, but last I heard, he was doing OK.

You can read some nice rememberences of him on Joe O's Millennium Message Board. I know Joe and Bard were friends with him and also Dick Mazetti, another of the real nice Delco Umpires was like a brother to him, keep these people in your prayers as they lost a close friend.
