Mike, get well. My Mom was born in Nicaragua and I had many family there during the 72 quake, so anything to do with Mr Clemente resonates with me. First series I ever watched was '71 and first bb cards '72 so this was a very formative time for me. Here's a pic of a cap my grandmother brought with her from Managua and one of the only things I have from her. Interesting choice of colors I think.

Mike,
Thanks for you gift and appreciate the reminder to us by showing what being a true friend is and what they’re willing to give of themselves. So glad you were able to celebrate after five years.
