Over 500 Fill Small Church on Long Island To Say Goodbye

Legendary Yankees and Giants public address announcer Bob Sheppard was laid to rest yesterday on Long Island.  Sheppard passed away earlier this week at the age of 99.

Among the admirers at the service – and providing eulogies – were Giants’ CEO John Mara, Yankees’ GM Brian Cashman and former St. John’s basketball icon Lou Carnesecca.
