I donated the last two seats at our table .
So, we'll have a police officer who will sing The National Anthem and a priest at our Niagara Table.
Now, that's being blessed!

A dozen from NU attended a fabulously unique event including from the early 70's ballers Jim Hegmann and Bill Schafer.
Former AD Bill Bradshaw was also there.

Everyone was given Joe's speech as he has difficulty with his speech but he's was vibrant as ever.
Tim looks well and gave a good talk after being presented by one of his sons.

Joe looks great. Hegmann from '72 or '73. Always felt bad for him that he wasn't more mobile but he had a decent touch from the FT line. And Billy
Schaeffer.....heck of ballplayer for the Redmen back then. Looks like it was a very good time.
