Tim Wakefield wrote a powerful message before he died.

It’s been nearly a month since Tim Wakefield died suddenly of brain cancer, but Red Sox Nation is still mourning his loss.
With Jerry Remy dead after the 2021 season, the loss of Wakefield’s character leaves a gaping hole in the organization that will take a long time to heal.
Red Sox fans don’t understand much about Wakefield’s final days, but his wife, Stacey Wakefield, recently shared a message that proves once again that he was a great guy until the end.

As Wakefield reflects on his life, he has some great lessons to share with us all.
As always, Wakefield emphasized the importance of helping others.
Not surprising for a man who has been nominated eight times for MLB’s prestigious Roberto Clemente Award, winning in 2010.
Wakefield has always been generous with his team and is deeply committed to philanthropy in the community.
He accepted the saying: “To whom much is given, much is required.” Throughout his career, he raised millions of dollars for various charities, many of which were aimed at helping children.

The legendary Red Sox pitcher enjoyed fame, fortune and status over the years, but it always seemed secondary to him.
He emphasized that money and material values ​​are not so important in life.
In the end, you won’t be able to take anything, and your life won’t be worth it.
No one will write your net worth on your tombstone, and your fancy cars and mansions won’t show up at the funeral.

Ultimately, as Wakefield points out, what matters most is making a positive impact on the lives of others.
That’s right, Oyan.
Good job.
