I don't remember anybody attributing a bad thought about him nor did he say anything bad about anyone.

I've been thinking for a while to go down to his museum and hopefully meet him.

Here is a true story:

Many years ago, my son called me and asked if I wanted to go Yogi Berra day at Yankee Stadium. I informed him I needed to go to my nephews twins christening as I had to pick-up the cake. I asked why his brother couldn't pick-up the cake and he said it wouldn't arrive in one piece.

David Cone pitches a perect game that day and my nephew jokes with me that I will never forgive his twins.
