November 28, 200520 yr best of luck to you in this time... hopefully something special can bond you and your family... there's always a light in the dark.... even if you have to close your eyes to see it.
November 28, 200520 yr Yea man sorry to hear about that, can't really say anything about the White Sox shirt bc that's not important at all when it comes to something like this. But yes it is good he experienced a WS before he passed. I'll be praying for ya buddy.

Sports can be a huge part of a person's life, and they bleed their favorite team's colors their entire lives. It also seems, atleast to me, that baseball specifically has this as well. Maybe that's because baseball is this way to me, maybe it just truly is this way, and maybe it is every sport in general...I'm not sure. The fact that he witnessed something huge, something monumental in White Sox history, something that hasn't happened since 1917 can help put closure to one's life. If he was a true, diehard Sox fan, then he witnessed something incredible, and it was a hell of an end. Sorry for your loss...many condolences go out. I wish you the best through these times, and it will get easier to cope with the loss as time goes on. Be happy and thankful he did witness a world championship before he passed, and that he was a happy man in resting for the final time.
November 28, 200520 yr Sorry for your loss, but at least he went out with a World Series championship.

November 28, 200520 yr Condolences to you and your family. If you can take some comfort out of the fact that your uncle was able to see a Sox championship, then do so.
November 28, 200520 yr Sorry to hear it buddy, if I were to leave this place in any piece of clothing, it would have to be my Pods jersey.
November 29, 200520 yr Sorry about that. My grandma (dad) and my grandpa (mom) died in the same school year. It was very sad for me. He was a huge Penn State fan. He would be really happy with the team this season.
November 29, 200520 yr QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Nov 27, 2005 -> 05:20 PM) to your entire family. The one thing I will say. If your going to go out, go out as a Sox Fan. At least he went out in style. Absolutely........
