Beautifully said. Joining you in prayer for Mr. Berra...he was truly a national treasure.

There are just a handful of people that bring a smile to my face when I think of them, such as Yogi Berra and Johnny Carson.
Then there are others that I smile because I’m glad they’re gone to meet their maker.

I heard he took a bullet at Normandy but didn’t claim a purple heart because he didn’t want to worry his mother.

Thank you for this post.
Prayers for the family, and may Mr. Berra rest in eternal peace. He gave us all enjoyment as we watched him play for all those years.

My Dad used to stay up for Carson's monologue and for the segment afterward. My personal favorite was Floyd R. Turbot... and I would always stay up late if an animal was going to be on, lol... Those were the best!
God bless you!

Had to look Mr. Berra up and saw he was associated with Baseball which explains why I was unaware of him.
Apparently though, he did provide entertainment to very many people who morn his passing.
They have my condolences.

If you get a chance, check out more, maybe at the Yankees site or on You Tube. He was quite a character- but even more so, quite a nice human being...

He was a wonderful model for the kids who followed baseball in those days.
May he rest in peace.

I remember mentioning Yogi Berra to a neighborhood chum, and a younger neighbor kid got all excited to hear there was a human named after Yogi Bear
RIP Yogi. You were truly one of a kind

Yogi was one of the many that symbolized a much more simple time, an I’ll offer, happier time - that time of my parents and my youth.

The story goes, once Berra was giving directions to his house when he uttered that famous line, “when you come to a fork in the road, take it.”
Now that sounds illogical, but actually, no matter which way you went at that fork, you would still end up at his house.
Rest in peace, Mr. Berra.
