Rip Tall Jeff Sparks

We lost one of the best players of my time in the late 60's and early 70's. Passed away last Thursday 6/4 from complications from lung cancer, he was 82 and a great guy. I called about 6 weeks ago and he said he'd lost a 100lbs in the last year! From 270 to 170lbs.

Told me he hurt everyday and was ready to go! I called him again a few weeks ago and had a good bull sh-- session with him, never knew he had cancer! What a loss, a legendary player and great guy. Was as good a nine ball player as anybody back in the day. My condolences to his family. I'll miss him!

RIP my friend
