Statement: George Kell

Statement from President Bill Clinton on the Passing of George Kell.

George Kell graced the game of baseball and always remained a legend in his home state. We were friends for almost 30 years and his invaluable role during my run for governor in 1982 is something I'll always be grateful for. Hillary and I liked and admired him so much. Our hearts a prayers go out to his family and friends.
