\u00a0Chatham, ON\u00a0– It would be a disservice to simply\u00a0label Gene Dziadura as the scout who signed Canadian baseball icon and Hall-of-Famer Fergie Jenkins.<\/span><\/div>\n

\u00a0<\/div>\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0The\u00a0proud native of Chatham,\u00a0a regular attendee at the Canadian Baseball Hall of Fame’s annual induction ceremony, passed away Tuesday at the age of 74.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0“Gene was\u00a0a strong family man and a beloved teacher\u00a0who\u00a0scouted for the Phillies in the summers, but he was so much more than that,”\u00a0noted Ball Hall president & CEO Tom Valcke.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 “We’re talking about a\u00a0real-life version of the\u00a0mentor in the movie ‘The Karate Kid.’\u00a0 There are legendary stories of him jogging side-by-side\u00a0with Fergie in\u00a0the snow,\u00a0catching Fergie as\u00a0he threw pitch after pitch into a shrinking target made of strings that\u00a0Gene designed, making Fergie chop wood to enhance his delivery, and throw a three-pound hammer\u00a0to develop his curve ball.”<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Dziadura and Jenkins became lifelong friends,\u00a0and he advised and remained loyal to Jenkins through thick and thin during his career, even making the\u00a0funeral arrangements for Jenkins’ mother.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 “While the Gene and Fergie stories are endless, Gene had a profound impact on the lives of many.\u00a0 He\u00a0took a genuine interest in everyone he met, including my brother Greg, who was diagnosed with cancer a few years ago.\u00a0 Gene\u00a0was fighting the same fight,\u00a0and he inspired Greg and kept in touch with him until the end,” Valcke added.<\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/div>\n
\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 “Gene held court many a time under the\u00a0tent on the Hall’s\u00a0Ceremonial Grounds here in St. Marys, and his presence will be sorely missed.”<\/span><\/div>\n
