As many of you may know by now, Harmon Killebrew, a former MN Twin, died recently. It always tugs at my heart when a personality such as Harmon leaves this world. It's a bit more personal when you've had the privilege of meeting this person. I had the opportunity to meet him 3 times over the last few years. And while I'm confident he wouldn't know me from Adam, it still feels like you lose a friend when they die.
The following link has a short video recap of Harmon. In it is a picture of our kids with Harmon on one of the 3 times I met him. The most amazing things about those meetings is that he treated every child as if they were his ONLY grandchild. He gave EACH kid time, and didn't move on or whisk any kid away. I will treasure those meetings always.
You will find the photo about 1:28 into the video.
