I had a tough time with his death, not only because I was a fan of his, but also because it was only months after my father had passed away. At the time, I was really sensitive to any father who died and I knew he had kids. Plus, I remember at the memorial that they had on the course, they had a lone bagpiper playing "Amazing Grace"...which was the same thing that my dad had requested for his memorial service. Basically, it just hit hard.

Thanks for starting this thread. It's always good to remember classy and fun athletes who have gone...
