I also recall the touching story of Everson Walls donating a kidney to Ron Springs.

I forgot all about that one.

Everson Walls mourns at funeral of Cowboys teammate Ron Springs

At that last above link, there was link to fuller comments by Pearson in regard to Mr. Newhouse;

Cowboys great Drew Pearson remembers Robert Newhouse

and a great photo of Newhouse in action. I remember that guy.
