Gary N. Stern posted a condolence
Monday, August 23, 2021
My name is Gary Stern, from Southern California. My first Dodgers Fantasy Camp was in November 2005. Ah yes; that is when I met "The Boys," and their Godfather Sal. I immediately felt a warm aura about the man. I was also impressed with that "private" table The Boys had at meal time; their love for one another was boundless. During the course of that week in Vero Beach and at subsequent camps and at Spring Training in Arizona, I found myself often just wanting to be in Sal's space. I ate up his stories, his memories, his opinions about baseball and life. In September 2019, I had the chance to travel to New Jersey for the dedication of a Little League field in the name of our friend from Camp, Mr. Jeff Torborg. On that trip, I joined Sal, Sandy, Wayne, Vinnie, Dave for what turned out to be one of the most memorable dinners of my life. Sal had slowed down and we had to help with ambulation, but the twinkle in his eye was as bright as ever. I knew Geri was not well and I know that ultimately, her passing was devastating to him. A couple of months ago, I was happy to write and circulate a letter signed by a number of his friends; included among those who sent their wishes for Sal were Steve Garvey and Jerry Reuss. Please know that there are scores of people like me who perhaps did not know the complete Sal; yet we knew his essence; a joyful man who brought joy to others. God has a special clubhouse waiting for Sal.
