Just the other day a freshman at USC was killed by a hit and run driver and now more senseless deaths in the same horrific fashion.
My deepest sympathies. There just really are no words but to take some comfort in the fact that this young man had accomplished so much and had realized his dream.
May he rest in peace.

I heard this terrible news on MLB radio about 1 1/2 hours ago.....my heart goes out for Nick's family and for the families of the others involved. I am shocked and saddened by this loss.

Last summer I sat with Nick's Mom and Uncle and watched him pitch a AAA game in Portland. I've never met Deldad in person, but I have talked with him on the phone and chatted with him in the chat room many times.
They are wonderful people. No one deserves this, but especially not them.
I just saw the news report and headed straight to the HSBBW. I'm shocked and saddened as others have expressed. Deldad, Janet, all family members and friends my heartfelt prayers and deepest sympathy. Words are inadequate at this time but may the Holy Spirit comfort you during this difficult time.

Words can not express how I feel right now. I got to know Deldad very well. He is a tremendous man. My heart is broken for him and his family. Quite honestly I am sick over it. Everyone please pray for Deldad and his family. Pray that God will intervene and give them strength.
If anyone hears of a fund/charity or a way to send flowers, please post.
My wife and I are sick to our stomach. Want to do something to help provide the teeniest of comfort if possible.
As TPM posted, Nick's father is a wonderful man...very humble. He helped me immensely with helpful and encouraging words when our son was injured. I want to reach back if its possible.
My prayers continue.

Adenhart is survived by his father Jim and mother Janet. His family released the following statement:
"Nick's family expresses sincere gratitude for all the help the Angels have provided. He lived his dream and was blessed to be part of an organization comprised of such warm, caring, and compassionate people. The Angels were his extended family. Thanks to all of Nick's loyal supporters and fans throughout his career. He will always be in everyone's hearts forever."
