...and also softball games...
I too remember those games at James Park. Teams that Chuck Rothchild captained almost always won those games, as Chuck was a winner in life. RIP Chuck.
It's always a shock to hear of the passing of a fellow classmate. We all felt so invulnerable at that age and now, as the years pass, realize just how fragile we all are and how important those memories of the past are and how every day is precious.

Chuck and I laughed a lot together as kids. The image of his laughing face is vivid in my mind. hard to grasp how people who were so alive are gone.
