Too young to die, wasn't he?

RIP Ron.

I will miss listening to him on the radio. Lots of people hated him for being such a homer, but he was more than a homer, he was a fan. If the Cubs went down so did Ronnie. He was a big personality and brought a lot of joy to a lot of people, mostly Cub fans who cringed every time he did.

Here's to you Ronnie

Unfortunately part of the 1969 collapse. Remember that team well rooting them on and always hoping one day they could win a WS.

2nd base Glenn Beckett one of my favs players growing up. Team had Don Kessinger, Ernie Banks, Fergie Jenkins, Billy Williams, ........... RIP Ronnie!

I'm one of the people who didn't care for his homer delivery on the radio but he's a baseball icon nonetheless. RIP Ron. BTW, Ron, the Cubs will never win the World Series again.
