On January 19,  1972, 36-year-old Sandy Koufax, the former Los
Angeles Dodgers star, became the youngest player elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame. "This is the only thing that’s made having
to retire early a little easier," says Koufax, who retired at age 30.
"This is the biggest honor I’ve ever been given, not just in baseball,
but in my life." Koufax made his Major League Baseball debut in
1955.

Sanford Koufax (Sanford Braun) turned 87 December 30th.

Aretha Louise Franklin (March 25, 1942 – August 16, 2018)

(FOX NEWS) – Aretha Franklin, whose booming vocals and
powerful personal presence made her one of the great
entertainers in global history, became the first woman
inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame on this day in
history, Jan. 3, 1987.

"Aretha Franklin was an artist of passion, sophistication
and command, whose recordings remain anthems that
defined soul music," the Rock Hall writes in its biography
of the performer.

She "was only 25 when she clinched the title of Lady Soul
with her unforgettably proud, sexy, candid and confident
1967 version of Otis Redding’s ‘Respect.’"
