RIP Hank Aaron

[MarkinPhx]

He is still the HR King to me. There is a great online Sports Illustrated article that tells everything he had to go through while chasing the record.

Rest in peace Hank, you will be dearly remembered.

RIP one of the few class acts in sports period.

I haven't read about all his trials and tribulations being a Black man in baseball back then, but I can imagine what he must've gone through from reading about Jackie Robinson. I do want to read Mr. Aaron's story. Another national icon gone. May he Rest in Paradise.
