August third was the anniversary of our brother's death in VietNam, I forgot to mention last time that he played little league baseball with Bobby Bonds and Dusty Baker. Robbie was a better ball player than either of these two gentlemen, and I wasn't the only one to think so, my sister, Anna reminded me one time when Robbie won a game singlehandedly, and that it was the first time a little league game had been played on the air (radio) in our town. We do still feel it every year around this time, the emptiness, and missing him. He was our personal hero.
