George Kell was a very good friend of my late great uncle and also my grandmother. They grew up all in the same vicinity of each other and I believe he still had lingering injuires from when his house caught on fire in 2001 he tried to go back into the house and save some of his memorablia from his playing days and lost quite a bit of memorablia and also was burned some in the process. He was a great guy and one of the most caring individuals in the hall of famer. I remember I asked for one autograph on one of his cards and he gave me a autograph on the card but he also pulled out cards of his own and autographed them for me and gave them to me.
he will be missed
