When your book is done, sign me up for a first edition copy. I bet it will be an awesome read for us sappy folks!

Dad passed away in 2004 at only age 54. I inherited his cards and now I have a disply room in my house complete with a mural of cards with a bat and glove at the bottom. The artist put my signature on the bat and my Dad's on the ball. When I go in that room, which is almost daily, I feel close to him in some strange way.
Here is a picture of the mural:
