My condolences to you, also.

You are obviously a fond admirer of his.

I was a kid in the 80s, just learning to watch umpires. I always enjoyed Brocklander's work. I know that he is not a favorite of many (union issues, proficiency, mechanics, etc.) but I always enjoyed watching him.

I never met him.
