I am so very sad to have learned of the passing of Mr. Huckaby. I extend my sympathies to the entire Huckaby family. Mr. Huckaby was a fixture in my childhood as the gruff baseball umpire in little league and babe ruth, and then became a friend that I respected and admired and enjoyed visiting with each time I was fortunate enough to see him. He will be missed. May his memory be eternal! Steve Megas (Stavros!)
