Always one of my favorites since 1965 when I found out Richard Killebrews uncle was Harmon, a real life baseball player. Richards dad was also a marine, like mine, and I was invited to his birthday party. I won 14 cents in a bingo game, and actually held that fortune for months because of the magical connection...

I hope the very best for him, and he is in good hands with the Mayo Clinic.

The Riverlands.
I remember when I was 8 and I was watching ESPN Classic and they used to air the old Home Run Derby programs. When I saw the Killer mash home runs 500+ feet I was hooked instantly. He has been my favorite old time player and always will be. Hang in there Killer! :cool:

He'll be in my thoughts and prayers, as I'm sure most of Twins territory and baseball fans across the nation will too. Hope you have a full recovery killer

Bummer. A buddy of mine will probably run into him while he is at work at some point. The Clinic is about 2 miles from my house

I've had the pleasure of meeting Harmon many times, and he is a absolutely great man. He's always in a good mood, and will talk to you about baseball. He still has one of the strongest handshakes I've experienced. Get well Killer!!
