Not sure what to say?

Dear Mr Kaline, you were (are) my favorite baseball player, period. You always played the game with grace, class, & were always proud to wear the olde English D. Back in my softball playing days, when I had a choice of #'s, I always picked #6! (I also played right field!) You always were a great example of how a player should conduct himself, on & off the field. You are sorely missed, Mr Tiger. Players of comfort to your Family, Friends, & Fans. R.I.P.

Mr. kaline truly missed, an ambassador to baseball and a humanitarian to the Detroit and Michigan community..he was a humble individual who loved baseball. Rip al

As the tigers open another season, I think of al and the many years he spent playing and living in the community. He was mr. tiger, class and humble of a throwback to the days when ball players stayed with one organization. He is missed by the many generations who saw him play.

I was fortunate to meet and greet Mr. Kaline on numerous occasions at local Sports Card shows over the years. My first time was when I was 11 years old, I think when he went to sign my item he knew I was star struck didn't know what to say. He was very kind to me and thanked me for coming. What a classy person, he was a true gentleman and always went the extra mile for the fans. I will personally never forget him and his kindness.
THANK YOU MR.TIGER!

Mr Kaline was our Tiger. He was always accommodating and nice to talk with when we went to Lakeland at Joker Marchant Stadium. He will be in our hearts when we return to Lakeland next season.

Seeing a Tiger baseball game on the TV or at the Stadium or listening on the radio will never be the same without Mr. Kaline. Thanks for the wonderful memories growing up. Rest in peace!

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

Al Kaline,my child hood hero,only god knows how much of an influence you have been in my life,I can only say thank you

Condolences to the Kaline family. Measure of what a man is, is what this man was. Measure of a baseball player, is what this man was. Measure of a hero to a young boy, is what this man was. Measure of a role model to a community, the city of Detroit, is what this man was.

Hit for the cycle up there Mr. Tiger!
