Monday Moments - Rangers Baseball, Lou Gehrig, and more

A quick Monday post.  Yesterday, Ray and I enjoyed a Texas Rangers baseball win over the Cleveland Guardians. 10 to 0  Rah.   The Ranger mascot, Maverick, is rather silly looking.  We enjoyed the game energy. 
 

Between innings, there was a little film of Lou Gehrig - the very famous Yankee who had to retire early due to ALS.  June 7th was Lou Gehrig Day, sending the message of the need/ search for a cure.

And alas, Bonnie Pemberton, a writer friend of mind, passed in December from this horrible disease. It was sad to see a vibrant amazing woman slowly lose her words and ability to communicate. She was a presence!

Anyway - it's good of the MLB to have special salute days, emphasize awareness, and to contribute funds for research. And it evoked memories for me - Bonnie had a great hearty laugh. 

Have a good week my friends. And take a moment to remember/ salute a special person who's gone from your life.
