Pics from Raghib "Rocket" Ismail private signing- Had a great time with the former Notre D

Had a tremendous time today with former Notre Dame great Raghib "Rocket" Ismail. One of the most humble, down to earth athletes I've ever encountered. I spent about 2 hours with him today at a private signing to benefit the Ellis County Children's Advocacy Center. Rocket donated his time to help us raise money. Class act all the way. Thought I'd share some pics from the signing and of him signing the various items.

Here's the stuff before heading out to see Rocket:

    Liquidating my collection for the 3rd and final time. Time for others to enjoy what I have enjoyed over the last several decades. Money could be put to better use.

    rocket grew up in wilkes-barre about 40 minutes south of me, i went to college there. our school ran districts against him, everyone thought they were fast until he stepped on the track.

    if you have an extra signed cards of him in ND garb and its available let me know.
