Hi everyone, it’s been a very long time since I last posted on here. A fellow PSB poster and a dear friend, Pierre Wheaton (City League Advocate) passed away earlier this week. I met Pierre on the the original sportsboard many, many moons ago. His love of his Pittsburgh City League and alma mater, Allderdice gave us a very unique insight on this board. He was a passionate writer and humorist. I personally will dearly miss my friend. I send my thoughts and prayers to him. God Bless my old friend. Though we never had the chance to meet in real life. I considered you a dear friend. Rest In Peace, Moonlight Scribbler.

So sorry to hear of his passing. He was basically the only contact we had for information on the Pittsburgh City League.

Very sad and huge loss to all of us. City League Advocate, Author Moonlight Scribbler, Sailor on the U.S.S. Carl Vinson, American Legion Commander Post 577 and dear friend. His command of the English Language was second to none, as was his ability to endure hardships and illnesses. I for one will miss him and his post from "The Little House in the Ghetto". Rest easy dear friend.  Thanks Olmoondawg for the photo of CLA. |

Was very saddened to see olmoondawg's FB post and the note here....CLA was our true link to City League athletics, past & present. "Fair Winds & Following Seas, Sir."

Sorry to hear about the passing of our CLA. Him and I shared a bond here as RMU fans and alums. Rest well.

Gone but not forgotten...thanks to CLA for all of his helpful insight when it came to City League Sports and other issues. Outside of the former PSB, we became facebook friends and briefly chatted over the years but we never had the opportunity to meet in person...my loss.

Very sad to hear. To parrot what has been said very well respected and very respectful himself. He was a pleasure to deal with in PSB land.
RIP to CLA.
