@Bookplate 

 

Woo-hoo, yay Willie!  What a hero!  

 

Highlight growing up was going to the Giants games, my parents would take us about 20 times a year.

 

We'd also meet the Giants at the airport sometimes when they came home from their out of town games.

 

My mom was on a flight and was either sitting next to or near Willie and she got his autograph for me.

 

Met Willie McCovey and he was as tall as a skyscraper and asked him for his autograph, that was a big thrill.

 

Also got Tom Haller's autograph.
