FIRST I EXPRESS MY SYMPOTHIES TO THE FAMILY, MY FATHER MIKE MCKEON LOVED SHAG AS WE ALL DID I WILL REMEMBER FOND MEMORIES WITH MY FATHER AND HIM I KNOW THEY ARE THROWING SOME BALLS TOGETHER NOW
With deepest sympathy and fond memories
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kindom of heaven: Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted: Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth: Blessed are those who hunger & thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied: Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy: Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God: Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons of God: Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness' sake, for theirs is the kindom of heaven: Blessed are you when men revile you and persecute you and utter all kinds of evil against you falsely on my account: BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO EJECT EARL WEAVER IN THE WORLD SERIES, FOR THEY SHALL BECOME "CREW CHIEFS" IN HEAVEN.
To the Family of Mr Crawford I am sorry for your loss. I just wanted you to know I am 54 years old and retired from a New Jersey Police Dept. When I was 9 years old and playing Little League Baseball in Audubon we had a banquet in the winter. The main speaker was Shag Crawford Major League Umpire. This was the guy I saw on TV and at Connie Mack. I still have his autograph somewhere in my home. He treated us special that night answering our questions. It was something the little boy in me never forgot. God Bless your family. Gregory Kushner Audubon, N.J.
