Gregg Korbon and his wife Kathryn

Gregg Korbon and his wife, Kathryn, talk about their son, Brian, who when he was almost 9 years old told his parents he wouldn’t make it to “double digits.” One day while playing in a little league game, he collapsed and died. Today the field where he played his last game is named Brian C. Korbon Field.
