Memo to Peter Angelos: "A sense of family the Orioles used to have, but is now gone."

These were the words of Ryan Hendricks, Elrod's son, at his funeral yesterday. ONLY 1 MEMBER OF THE ORIOLES CURRENT 40-MAN ROSTER WAS PRESENT AT THE SERVICE (MELVIN MORA). There were many others from the baseball community there to pay their respects, but sad to see no current players attended except Melvin Mora. Elrod was on the coaching staff until this year. After the stroke, the team moved him to another job, but Mr. Hendricks never grew to like life outside of an Orioles uniform.
