Added Security at Delco Sikh Temple, Phillies Sellout Streak Ends, Andy Reid Issues Statement |

In the wake of the deadly shootings in Wisconsin at a Sikh Temple, Millbourne police are taking precautions and upping patrols near a local Sikh Temple near Upper Darby. This group of Millbourne Sikhs is praying for those lost in Wisconsin, and hoping its beliefs of peace, love, and freedom of religion are heard. Members say they will hold a candlelight vigil at Love Park between 7:30 and 8:30 p.m. tomorrow.
The Phillies sellout streak came to an end on Monday night after 257 consecutive regular season games. The streak began on July 7, 2009. The total paid attendance for those 257 games was 11,585,952 with an average attendance of 45,082 per game. The Phillies home record during that time was 154-103. The sellout streak was the longest ever in the National League and the third-longest in Major League Baseball history, behind the Boston Red Sox and the Cleveland Indians.
Garrett Reid, the oldest son of Philadelphia Eagles coach Andy Reid, was found dead Sunday morning in his room at the club’s training camp at Lehigh University. Garrett was 29 years old.
On Monday, Andy Reid released a statement about his son’s death:
“On behalf of Tammy and our family, I would like to thank everybody for their tremendous support, love, kind words and prayers during this time of great sadness. Words cannot express our sense of loss. We loved Garrett so much. He was a wonderful son and brother. He made us laugh, he was a pleasure to be around, he always had a smile on his face, and we will miss him dearly. We will never forget him, and we will remember him with love. Garrett’s road through life was not always an easy one. He faced tremendous personal challenges with bravery and spirit. As a family, we stood by him and were inspired as he worked to overcome those challenges. Even though he lost the battle that has been ongoing for the last eight years, we will always remember him as a fighter who had a huge, loving heart. I spoke with the team yesterday and thanked them for their thoughts and prayers. I asked them to continue with their preparations for the upcoming season until I am ready to rejoin the team. It is in times like these that we lean on our faith, our family, our friends, and our Eagles family. We will do so in the difficult times ahead.
Thank you again for your continued support.
Andy Reidâ€
