Along with the rest of the world, I was saddened this morning to learn of the passing of the multi-talented Joe Bonsall.

Joe was a great singer, the consummate performer, and a dear friend. We not only had country music in common, but he loved baseball just as much as I do, and we had many a friendly discussion as to which was the better team...his Philadelphia Phillies or my Atlanta Braves. I won't say any money ever changed hands, but I won't deny it either.

I will think of Joe and miss him with every high note I hear sung and every crack of the bat that echoes across the summer skies. Rest in peace, my friend. You were truly one-of-a-kind.

Bill Anderson
