I was watching a PBS documentary on Little League, thought of googling Edgemere Robins and ran across the obituaries for Mr. Kern. I was on the team until 1956. Is it possible that Mr. Kern was my coach? If someone could reply with the answer to that question, I'd be very grateful. It was a lot of fun to play baseball at that age, and if Mr. Kern was the coach, he is a part of some very fond memories. My deepest sympathy to his family. My email is [email protected]
