Remember George
We felt a deep sense of sadness with the loss of "voice of God" and
that of the most important sports owner in American History.
For more than 50 years and a 1000 + Yankee home games, the sounds of Bob Shepard's voice echoed though baseball's greatest stadium. Our appreciation for crisp, clear voice will always linger our mind.
Mr. Steinbrenner was an owner who truly understood the importance of winning, and that greatness is paramount. You always knew who the boss. Whilst he had his flaws, he brought the greatest sports team history back to life and back to the top.
We only met Mr. Steinbrenner twice, once with Barry Halper (who owned 2% of the Yankees) and once at a dinner with his date Barbara Walters. We found him to be smart, direct and a true fan.
We will you Bob and George
