What a lovely idea. What do I do?

No details yet. It is only 25 dollars so will be a small lift.

I'm in. Keep me in the loop... I want to buy one of these for myself, too. Anyone have a season-ticket-holder code they'd like to share? PM me if you do, thanks!

There was a good pic on his memorial service program. Mick can probably get the the jpg from Mrs. Smitty.

Would the Phillies do something for us if we reached out and told them what was up? Like would they put him on tv?

Might even throw him out to the bullpen by the looks of it

I'll buy one! We'll have to see the details of what you're allowed to do, as far as multiple versions of the same person. If we can get like row-ful of SMittys that might be a decent TV hook.

I would condense his obit, and add a couple sentences about his love of the Phillies (maybe mention BSG?). Then send that info to the PR office, I'm sure they can get it to CSN producers. I can help with any of that, though a bunch of you actually knew him so you'd be better at writing his blurb.
