It was quite a shock to hear of Mr. Cub's passing last night. This story has dominated the Chicago news since then. I only got to see him play a couple of times towards the of his career when my dad and I traveled to Chicago to see the Cubs play. He was quite a trail blazer and a true gentleman.
One Chicago radio host said this morning: "Ron Santo is now showing Ernie Banks around the clubhouse at that great baseball stadium in the sky."
