Thanks Kevin.. Hissam is a sweet guy who everyone in Hot Springs and Louisville loves. His battle with pancreatic cancer looked certain to keep him from today's ceremony, so it's special that he's able to share the moment with Borel. Most of us are just observers of and casual participants in the game, but for a Jerry Hissam, it's a life. Would like to think that came through clearly in his reflections and resonated.
