Today he would've been 80 years young

Think I might add a card or two to my master set in his honor.

I still remember the day when the news of his death came on the TV. He could not of proved himself a more worthy humanitarian any better, then with his passing away in the course of helping his fellow man.

I remember that day too, still very sad 4 decades later.
Show a card of Clemente, here's one I had awhile back

I saw his widow and son at Fanfest. I read a great biography of him, quite the guy.

Baez578 · August 19, 2014 12:28PM

So many to choose from lol

I'll go with this since I submitted it myself

Still remember like it was yesterday when the news came over the television as we were watching the tube that day.
