  RIP, Yogi - one of my childhood heroes. The town I grew up in had a AA Yankee 'farm' team, where I saw a lot of future Yankees in their youth. Yogi was already a major league veteran, along with Mantle, Maris, Elston Howard, Clete Boyer, Bobby Richardson, Moose Skowron, Whitey Ford, and others I thought I would never forget, but did.

  Apparently, it's over. RIP Yogi, you were good to the game and you will be (and have been) missed.

  The last of my childhood heroes gone. I loved that guy. Yogi did it all and was part of a Golden Age.

  Great souvenir. How is it that you missed Roger Maris and Elston Howard with the autographs?

  I hate to hear that. His one liners are classic.
  
  RIP Mr. Berra.

  The thing about Yogi is absolutely NO one disliked him. Unusual in any sport or in any human.

  He was giving directions to his house. As it turns out, either fork led to his house. I guess he lived on a circle.
