September 28, 20169 yr Pretty tough inside the church. Just surreal. Can't believe I saw him pitch last week and now this.
September 28, 20169 yr For the record, I know you guys like to bash the organization but throughout this entire situation they have been a class act.
September 28, 20169 yr Pretty tough inside the church. Just surreal. Can't believe I saw him pitch last week and now this. What do you see?
September 28, 20169 yr The family grieving, the casket, and pictures. Thanks. I assume it is quiet. And I can't believe the family is staying there the whole time. Talk about unbearable. Do you know who the tall bald guy is who has been comforting Jose's mother?
September 28, 20169 yr Do you know who the tall bald guy is who has been comforting Jose's mother? He works for the fish if its who I think it is. He is one of the liaisons between the fans and players so I'm assuming he spent a lot of time with his family over the years.
September 28, 20169 yr Thanks. I assume it is quiet. And I can't believe the family is staying there the whole time. Talk about unbearable. Do you know who the tall bald guy is who has been comforting Jose's mother? Very quiet. I believe it was a reporter who used to cover him way back when
September 28, 20169 yr For the record, I know you guys like to bash the organization but throughout this entire situation they have been a class act. Yep, every one of them even the usual suspects that people love to bash. To be fair I think everyone has seen that and no one has bashed them for any of this.
September 29, 20169 yr Got to tip my Hat to him. Also got to sign the memorial outside Marlins park "Decansa en paz bestia!"
September 29, 20169 yr It's when I saw his casket that it finally hit me. He's not coming back. Life is not fair so not fair. Monday on the way to the game my son said to me, "Daddy, maybe Fernandez just has a concussion from the boat crash and he will be able to play again someday." : (

September 29, 20169 yr Even everything I have read and seen, I still almost think I am having the WORSE nightmare and it seems to be lasting a week. Please tell me I'm not wrong.
September 29, 20169 yr I still keep saying to myself "Jose Fernandez is dead" and it doesn't register.
September 29, 20169 yr Same here guys. I never would have imagined I would get this emotional over someone I didn't really know personally. One time Jose and his grandma came into my job in 2013 and I was too intimidated to approach him. I'll forever regret that now. RIP Jose.
September 29, 20169 yr For as much as we've slated him over the years, this picture taken at today's funeral serves as a reminder that despite him at times making questionable baseball decisions for this franchise, Jeffrey Loria really is not a bad guy. [ATTACH]1187._xfImport[/ATTACH]
September 29, 20169 yr Is that Rob Manfred next to Loria or am I crazy? Yes. They had mentioned it when they listed Loria, Samson and others who entered through another entrance and not through the front.
