Derek Jeter

D edicated and determined, for 15 years or more. E xtraordinary talent, that Baseball fans adore! R evered by other athletes, for the example that he sets. E ncourage our kids to be like him, and we'll have no regrets. K eeping real high standards, is something he will yield. J ust isn't any problem, both on and off the field! E xcellence seems to be his goal, at least that is his game. T hough he knows it's unattainable, he keeps trying just the same. E xpect no less from this great guy, he's unique, and that's a fact. R espect is automatic, cause he's a real "Class Act"! Congrats to Derek

What a great tribute to a fine ball player and a fine person. Great job here. If you sent him this I bet he would keep it. It's always good to let our atheletes know just how much they have to live up to. Wonderful verse and rhyme. God Bless, JB
