Heaven Gets a New Organist

Sad news fell upon the Pittsburgh sports scene as long time stadium organist, Vince Lascheid passed away yesterday. For those that have attended Pirates or Penguins games in the 70's, 80's or 90's, you've definitely sang along to Mr. Lascheid's key tickling. Once more, a little piece of our youth moves into life's scrapbook.
Lest we forget the eternal trivia question "Who's the only person to play for the Pirates, Steelers, and Penguins?"


Along these somber lines, I'd like to extend some heartfelt best wishes to MP and his family, as they mourn the loss of Papa Don, a truly great man, mentor, veteran, and Pennsylvanian.
