Harmon Killebrew passed away a few hours ago from cancer. Great hitter, but one of the most underrated of the greatest. RIP Killer.

Not only was Harmon Killebrew a GREAT baseball player, he was an even GREATER person. He will be missed by all!

I have meet a fair amount of professional athletes and Harmon was by far and away the kindest and friendliest I have ever met. The world will miss him. I only wish I could have seen him play.
