Deano, Marshy, Shane, and now Roy – Andrew Symonds
Four Aussie cricket icons dead in the past year or so. Apart from Rod Marsh, all fairly young. But all fairly shocking.
If you’re a middle-aged sports loving Aussie bloke and you’re not thinking about your mortality, then how many more cricketers would it take?
Death is something we know in our gut is inevitable, but so often we don’t talk about it. But inevitable or not, every time it happens we’re shocked
But here we have four famous Aussies from the same sport all dying in quick succession.
The Bible says that we are all appointed to die. We don’t know when it will happen, but we do know that it will happen.
And famous, untimely deaths grab our attention.
Has your attention been grabbed? I hope so. Death’s inevitability should give us wisdom in how we live.
