Born in Germantown, Illinois of German ancestry....the German translation of his name is...."beautiful servant".

I met him in Cooperstown several years ago (he was 80 at the time) and he looked like he could still trot out
to 2nd base and play BB.

A wonderful guy to chat with, and a very humble man.

Frank, I am sure you know this, being a Cardinals fan......some of the nicest BB players that I have met and
chatted with are......

Johnny Mize (my favorite....I visited him at his home in Demorest, GA)
Stan Musial
Enos Slaughter
Bill White
