In the last chapter of YANKEE FOR LIFE, Bobby's final three words are ... "new wonderful life." Yes, Bobby, your with God and enjoying a joyful reunion with family and Yankee teammates who preceeded you to that glorious new life that is eternal. Until we meet again ....

Bobby was my idol as a boy in the early '70's. I wrote a poem in his honor. Here it is.......
Bobby and a Boy 07/21/08
It was the other day
I was having a good time
Heard the news….. It was about Bobby
A silent sadness set in and a tear I did shed
Then, he was back up to bat like before
I was back in a long forgotten place
Oh, the happy thoughts of when I was a boy
Inspired I was by his majestic swing
But, I lost a huge part of me
You see,
A young boy’s hero gracefully said goodbye
That boy was me
Never met him, yet he said “hi” every day
I often heard him over these many years
I answered with a knowing grin
Hope he remembers me
A long homer he might hit for me
In that better place he went
My world is smaller for a while
But, here is the thing –
Bobby Murcer made me a dreamer
And a Yankee fan for life.
That is about all you need to know
Going, going, see ya…..

Bobby Murcer was a hero in our family growing up as kids in the 70's watching our favorite team, the Yankees. We never missed a game when aired on TV. He was special and one of the greatest baseball players of all time. Our heart sank deeply when we heard the sad news. We love you Bobby, forever.

I am not a Yankee Fan, but I am a fan of baseball. Bobby Murcer was one of the good guys. Played with heart and always the professional, on and off the field. My thoughts are with his family. You have so many memories of a very nice man.

I pray for the family of Bobby Murcer at this difficult time. I did have the pleasure of watching Bobby play baseball and broadcast it. I heard how sick he was during a recent broadcast, but hung in there till the end. I have nothing but respect for this couragous man. I wish I could have met him. Rest in Peace, Bobby.

I had the good fortune to see you play. Thank you for that of course, but more importantly thank you for showing us how to live. May your family cherish always the person you are and until we all meet again, may God Bless you and your family.

DEAR MURCER FAMILY, I AM SO SORRY FOR THE LOSS OF YOUR HUSBAND, DAD, UNCLE, FRIEND. I MUST TELL YOU THIS STORY WHEN I WAS 8 YEARS OLD. I WROTE BOBBY A LETTER TELLING HIM HOW MUCH I LOVED HIM AS MY FAVORITE YANKEE. IN TURN I RECEIVED A COPY OF AN AUTOGRAPHED TEAM PICTURE OF THE 1970 YANKEES. I WILL NEVER FORGET THAT. I WILL BE 46 YEARS OLD THIS AUGUST AND I STILL TELL PEOPLE THIS STORY. I WILL ALWAYS TREASURE THAT MEMORY. HE IS A TRUE HERO AND A GREAT YANKEE. MY PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU.

Bobby Murcer was the first N.Y. Yankee I ever had a crush on! Being a Die-Hard Yankee Fan I have followed him as a player and as a wonderful announcer. In whatever capacity, He always made New York proud and he will be greatly missed. May God Bless and comfort his family and friends during this sad time.

My deepest sympathy to the Murcer Family. Bobby touched so many people with his friendly, positive way,dazzling smile, and genuine concern for others. He will remain with us in our memories and hearts. He is a Yankee, not just for life, but forever. I know that he is watching and cheering for his Yankees with Thurman now. Two Heros, gone too soon.

Growing up on Long Island, I became
a huge Yankee fan the day I turned
on the tv and saw Bobby Murcer up
at bat. I was a 13 year old girl and
instantly developed a crush on him.
There was a real genuiness about him, he was just very likeable.
You'll be terrribly missed but never
forgotten!
Thomas Graham

The true embodiment of class, dignity and talent. Maybe there were players with better stats but none were a better person than Bobby Ray Murcer. My deepest sympathies to Kay and the entire Murcer family. I'm sure Bobby is having a catch with Thurman and Mickey right now.

My first sports idol, the only Yankee worth watching in the days of the early 70s. His trade to SF was one of the worst days of my then young life. He was the kind of ballplayer- THE MAN- I'd have wanted to sit and havea beer w/ while listening to Bobby talk about the game or anything. Thanks for the memories, Bobby. We will miss you

My sincere condolences to the Murcer family. Bobby was one of those people that we need more of on this earth, but I am sure that his spirit is making heaven an even better place than it was before. Bobby was one major reason why I became a Yankee fan in the late 60's.

I became a Bobby Murcer fan when Bobby played right field for the Chicago Cubs in the late 1970's. I had the honor and privilege of meeting him when he was playing for the Cubs.
One of my last memories of him was after he was traded back to the Yankees. The Yankees came in to play the White Sox and of course I made my mom take me to Comiskey Park to see my hero Bobby Murcer. Bobby still had a car and residence in the Chicago area. I managed to find his car in the parking lot across the street from the park and waited by it to get an autograph and picture with him. Lou Piniella, Thurman Munson, and Bobby came to the car together as they were staying with the Murcer's in Chicago. Sadly, I was one of the last fans to see Thurman Munson alive as he was killed in a plane crash the next day. That was a sad and chilling memory. How ironic that now Lou Pineilla is the manager of the Cubs.
Bobby was always gracious to this former Bobby Murcer fan crazed teenage girl that is now in her forties. Today I feel a part of my youth is now gone with your passing, Bobby.
May God bless you in heaven and bring comfort to your family. I hope that you, Thurman, and Mickey are having a good time catching up on old times.
Yes, you did acquire some Cubs fans that became your fans and adored you. I will miss you, Bobby!

OUR DEEPEST SYMPATHY GOES OUT TO BOBBY MURCERS FAMILY.
How ironic, I had just bought the book on Bobby's life for my hubby for Father's day (he's not completed it yet). this was very sad news indeed as my hubby and family are huge Yankee Fans, and know what he has meant to the team--and boradcasting. My son and daughter were at Yankee Stadium for the tribute today.... Bobby will be greatly missed.
May His Soul and all the souls of the dearly departed, Rest In Peace...Amen.

Bobby took the place of the Mick for me once number 7 left. Though he never was a world champion on the baseball field, as I read all the accolades about him, he was clearly a world champion in the human race. Rest in peace Bobby. Prayers go out to the Murcer family.

Born in 1952, but a girl... I knew I could never be a Yankee centerfielder... Mantle and then Murcer and Mattingly... class athletes, a wonderful baseball tradition. My prayers and thoughts go out to Bobby's family. He was just too young to leave us.

As a Yankee for over 20 years from
the UK. when not crossing the pond
to watch the team most of my viewing of games in the days before
we had a cable channel devoted to
American sports here was spent getting
video tapes of Yankee games about a week after they had been played.
How I laughed with Phil & Bobby.
THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES BOBBY!

you'll always be #1 in this Yankee fans heart!!

I feel like I lost a member of my family. My heart is filled with sadness and yet with joy for his family in the legacy he leaves and in how he is honored. I know when my father died, the thing that was most important to me was how everyone loved him. It carried me through as the love of everyone for Bobby will carry his family and the Yankee family through.

I'm not a Yankee fan, nor am I any more an MLB fan, but I was saddened to learn of his passing...he was a class act, on and off the field, a tremendous competitor, and a lot of what made baseball great, and what it could unquestionably use more of now...Peace to you and your family.

I recently had the pleasure to meet and shake the hand of Bobby Murcer. This was a dream come true for me as Bobby Murcer was my favorite yankee and favorite broadcaster. yesterday we lost a great man. If every man in this world was like Bobby Murcer every woman would be the luckiest woman in the world.
July 13, 2008
Having grown up with the Micky Mantle Yankees, Bobby was the link.Its not often that a public man is what he appears to be. Bobby was -witness the comments from cynical baseball writers who to a man laud him. He will be missed.

As a young boy, Bobby Murcer was the first sports hero I ever had. I imitated his batting stance and the way he came in under a fly ball in Centerfield. I cried the day he got traded and smiled again the day he came back to the Yankees. At the last Old-Timers Day game I attended several years ago, Bobby was walking in from the outfield. I stood up in the crowd with my camera and yelled "Bobby, give us a smile." He turned toward me, posed until after I took the picture, and went on.
I cried today when I heard of his passing, and smiled again when I remembered the man. Thank you Bobby.
My warmest wishes go out to your family.

In those lean years of the early 70's when it was tough to be a young Yankee fan, Bobby was one of my heroes. Words could not describe how I felt when I was handed my grade-school team uniform and it had a "1" on the back. It was hard to see him get traded away and miss out on the Yanks return to greatness. It was an honor to be at the Stadium when they honored him on his retirement. We have truly lost not only a great Yankee, but a true gentleman whose career and voice will live on in baseball memory. My condolences to the Murcer family.

I was in the kitchen cooking up a quick marinara sauce for my husband and son who were on their way home from the beach. I had one ear glued to the TV. The Yanks had just gotten a very much needed win and I realized it wasn't the usual post game but John Sterling talking about Bobby Murcer. Instantly I knew he was gone. To my surprise, tears rolled down my face. I can count one hand the tears I've shed for people for whom I never met. Bobby took a piece of my heart with him today. Thanks for all the memories Bobby. I'll always remember you as the very handsome soft spoken Yankee you always were. God Bless you and may you rest peacefully.
Good-bye Bobby: "a Yankee for Life"

You may not have made it to Cooperstown, Bobby, but more importantly, you will always be #1 in our hearts! I'm sure that Mick, Thurman & Scooter were there to greet you with a "Holy Cow" at the Pearly Gates!! Keep smiling on us all and thanks, Bobby, for making our lives a little brighter. The Yankee family will miss you!

I attended the Cleveland Indian doubleheader at the stadium in which Bobby hit four home runs in a row. The games saw Ray Fosse hit in the foot with a cherry bomb throw from the upper deck (remember that!), and Steve Hamilton’s folly floater. But as a young boy we came to see Murcer, whether it was bat day (where you'd trade 4 other players bats to get one of his), or this incredible double header that saw Bobby hit four in a row. I'll take that with me forever. Thank you! Godspeed.
Fred J Mann

Thank you, Bobby, for your unending pride in being a Yankee. You always brightened my heart with your genuine love of the Pinstripes, you are a true class-act and will be sorely missed.

murcer was always a great guy and a good broadcaster. i remember my first game watching the yanks via t.v and murcer was broadcasting the game. he described what is going on the field and share his knowledge of the game. im gonna miss him dearly. i bet he loved nothing more than watching the yanks from heaven winning the world series at the final yr at the stadium he will always be yankee in our hearts of yankee fans.
