Bill from NYC Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 That is simply heartbreaking, shocking news. This man gave of himself in countless ways. Do you remember when the Falcon player screwed up during superbowl week? Reggie flew dont there to counsel him. I am thinking that scads of NFL players owe this man a ton. May God rest the soul of this great person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverNRed Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 Why do so many people pass away on or around Christmas? RIP big guy! 178113[/snapback] Christmas Day is the day when most Americans die each year. The reason I heard is that people are less likely to go to the hospital if they feel something wrong (chest pains, etc.) but I imagine drinking and driving would have something to do with it as well. RIP, Reggie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
njsue Posted December 26, 2004 Share Posted December 26, 2004 December 27, 1996 my father died due to malpractice. Do I know what it feels like.
