Thanks for the memories: Maury Allen and Vic Ziegel

December 12, 2010

Maury Allen

Vic Ziegel

Harvey Araton published this sweet tribute to these veteran sportswriters who passed away over the last few months.

While I didn’t know Mr. Ziegel, I did have the pleasure of making Maury‘s acquaintance and though I didn’t have the same relationship with him as Araton, I did find him very open and charitable when it came to doing my stories with his help or about him.

Allen wrote some 40 books on sports and other topics, while Ziegel published a few as well.

So thank you, Harvey, for reminding us of these fine gentlemen.
