No sports figure has stood taller in Atlanta than Hank Aaron, the greatest home run hitter in the history of Major League Baseball. He is a sports legend, was a pillar of the Atlanta community and needs to be remembered as a first-class human being who displayed dignity in everything he did. Georgia State will proudly immortalize him at the baseball stadium we will construct on the site of the former Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium. I extend my deepest sympathies to Billye Aaron and the Aaron family.
