Henry Louis Aaron passed away today. Never had the honor to watch Mr. Aaron play given that he was a bit before my time. I've read much about Mr. Aaron and cannot find a disparaging utterance from anyone. By all accounts Mr. Aaron was the epitome' of class, dignity, humility and honor. The world do well with many, many more like Henry Aaron. He persevered through the jim crow era and faced rampant racism while maintaining class and dignity throughout it all!
Mr. Aaron is the true Home Run King. Barry Bonds in nothing more than a steroid baby imposter.
Rest In Peace Mr. Aaron. You were one of the greatest baseball players of all time and an even better human being.
