Morley Gooding 1928 - 2010
Inducted 2000 Builder, Community Leader, Fastball
|
Morley lived his whole life in Estlin and always had a desire to make things in his community run well and be worthwhile. He had a keen interest in winter sports but there never was quite enough time to participate as he was the snow plow operator (some winters that was a full-time job). Morley did get involved by helping out at bonspiels and willingly took his turn to look after the outdoor skating rink. In the summer Morley found the time to play ball and became quite an accomplished pitcher.
His involvement extended to coaching, managing, umpiring and was a great volunteer for the grounds. Morley was especially proud near the end of his playing career to suit up with his sons Duke and Bruce! |
