This picture was taken at Yankee Stadium in August 2009. It was my father's dying wish to visit the new stadium and meet some of the players...it was one of the best days of his life and I will cherish the memories that we created that day. My Dad passed away less than a month later of Multiple Myeloma and plasma cell leukemia.
Lovely memory! My father passed away in 2009 also... I was very lucky to have spent several months with him before he passed.

What a great memory. I lost my dad in 1999 when I was 16. Time makes it easier, but it's never easy. So glad he got such a cool wish granted!
