Chicago Cubs legend and Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg passed away yesterday after a long battle with cancer. Although I’m deeply sad about the loss, I am grateful that many seemed to know this could be coming and had an opportunity to share their love with and for Ryno in the weeks that preceded his passing. Say the things while people are still around to hear them, you know?
That doesn’t mean the tributes that have come since his passing are any less worthy – there’s a reason why, when someone beloved passes, we come together and share stories and even tell jokes. It’s a celebration of that person’s life and all that they meant. It’s an opportunity to find something good out of something sad, and I suspect someone like Ryne Sandberg would appreciate that.
So here are some of the tributes I’ve seen to Ryno, in which I’ve found joy at a sad time:
