Remembering Bob Feller

Bob Feller was not only one of the best athletes in Cleveland, he was one of the best athletes in The United States. Bob was a Clevelander through and through, always attending spring training sessions and a regular staple at Indian's home games. He set numerous records and is still considered one of the best right handed pitchers in the game. Feller is the only Cleveland Athlete to be immortalized with a statue, it stands outside of Progressive Field. Feller and his wife Anne were residents of Gates Mills,a Cleveland Eastside suburb for many years. He passed away after a battle with Leukemia, entering hospice for pneumonia earlier this week. As Clevelanders, we should all remember Bob Feller as a true American Hero. Rest in Peace.
