"It's the kind of disease that ravages the time," said family spokesman Dan Ewald, who was in California with Anderson about three weeks ago.
The statement also said Anderson's family - wife, Carol, sons, Albert Lee, and his daughter Shirley Englebrecht - "would like to thank all friends and fans for their support and kindness they have shown throughout the race Sparky and retirement. "
Ewald, who has been a friend of Anderson for 35 years, spent a week with Anderson in October. We talked about some old times they shared in baseball during the trip.
One of the stories of the couple revived a trip to Minnesota to play the Twins in 1987. He stopped a taxi to the stadium. Ewald paid the fee and wanted to give the driver an extra bonus for being in the playoffs.
The next day the two took another taxi and somehow got the same driver. On his way to the stadium, nudged each other Ewald Anderson and signaling he wanted to play a joke on the driver. The two start talking loudly about how bad they were going to beat the Twins, so that the driver, who was a fan of the twins, they listen and say something.
