Re: Don Elbaum dead at 94
Deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Don. I knew he had had some health challenges of late and had him in my prayers. I got to know Don over the years through attending regional cards in the Northeast US and through Ring 44 Buffalo Old-timer boxing organization. Don was always very generous with his time to me and I had some great talks with him about Willie Pep. At a boxing dinner just after he entered the boxing hall of fame, I sat with him and reminisced a bit about the Atlantic City Tropicana cards he promoted back in the day. I was wearing a pretty wild shirt that I had purchased in Vegas and after talking boxing Don said, "Kid, where did you get that shirt - from Elvis?". RIP Don, you were one in million.
