Another loss in the family of umpires.
Many of you know Billy Monk, Dallas Metro UIC. Billy passed away yesterday. There are no details on the memorial service yet. Say a prayer for his family.

Hardly anything you can add to that, if ever knew Billy.

Yah, Malcolm and I were on the phone talking about him on Monday...and then Tuesday, a call from a friend down there to let me know.

What a character indeed. All my best, Pam.

They say anyone, everyone, can be replaced. There will be someone to assume his title...but replace him? Nope, not happ'nin.
