On July 21st we lost one of the province’s most loved umpires Rick Rogers, he was 61. Rick was umpiring at the PWSA Intermediate Grand Championship when passed unexpectedly. Rick was a father, husband and to so many of us in the softball community a good friend.
PWSA, Softball Ontario Umpires, Kitchener Minor Girls Softball and numerous other softball groups have joined together to organize a fund to support the family of Rick Rogers. We will facilitate donations through e-transfer. Thank you to all of you that have reached out and offered ideas on how we can best support the family. Donations can be made at rickrogerseducationfund@pwsaontario.com
Here are some articles that talk about who Rick was to the softball community here in Ontario.
