George Steinbrenner

Fifteen years ago my family and I were having dinner at a restaurant on the Upper East Side in NYC. I saw Steinbrenner sitting with a group of people and suggested to my son (then 5 years old) that he introduce himself to “The Boss.” Steinbrenner could not have been nicer. He welcomed my son to the table and also invited my daughter to come over and wrote them both notes that the Yankees loved them. They were not old enough at the time to fully appreciate what happened, but they still have the notes today.
