Wellington Mara 1916 - 2005

From Giants.com:

Wellington Mara, the Giants’ President and Co-Chief Executive Officer who was a vital member of the franchise for every one of its 81 years, a National Football League icon and one of the most beloved and respected figures in professional sports, died today.

Mara peacefully passed away at his home in Rye, N.Y., at 9:26 a.m. He was surrounded by his wife, Ann, his 11 children and their spouses, and many of his 40 grandchildren. He was 89.

Mara is a football legend, and the Giants will never be the same without him. It’s nice to think that the last game he got to see was that great last minute comeback over the Broncos.

Rest in Peace Mr. Mara.
