OK, Roberto Clemente has always been my hero since the time I was a child.
Even after we moved to Florida, I followed the Pirates, and I always wore #21,
and played right field in little league. I used to imitate his "basket catch"
when catching fly balls, but only in practice. I only wish I had half the arm
he had. He was the real deal, a fine athlete and a gentleman. He died serving
others while trying to fly relief supplies to hurricane victims.
