Andre Dawson on how baseball prepared him for life in a funeral home

 Former Cubs player and Hall of Famer Andre Dawson dazzled Chicago fans back in the late '80s and early ‘90s, dedicating his life to the game of baseball. Years after his retirement, he's given up the baseball diamond for the funeral plot.

For two decades, he was known for a career 438 home runs and over 300 stolen bases. Today, that winning smile and humble spirit Cubs fans knew on the field decades ago is still very much alive in the man who’s now in his 60s. Although he puts on a different kind of game face as he heads to work in Miami, preparing to work with grieving families as owner and operator of a funeral home.
