Thousand Oaks Little League

In Loving Memory...

Thousand Oaks Little League wants to take a moment to honor the Gorman/Davis Family and send our prayers after the passing of Alicia Gorman on June 5, 2018. Dick and Alicia, a strong partnership as husband and wife, were a part of Thousand Oaks Little League for many years while their grandson Ricky played. Their daughter, Kecia Davis brought her son to our league back in 2000 to begin his baseball journey. Kecia’s daughter Korah, spent hours at the fields playing with other children while her brother played baseball and her grandparents watched. Kecia volunteered where she could, helped when asked and eventually became an assistant coach for many years with Jeff Simonsgaard. All the while, Dick and Alicia were there to support. They attended many, if not all their grandson’s games without haste. They chatted with families, respected the coaches and encouraged the players. They cheered with passion when Ricky had a good hit and put their arm around him for support when the game didn’t turn out as planned. Dick and Alicia enjoyed the years they spent at Thousand Oaks Little League and honored the commitment their daughter Kecia had to the league.

This sounds like so many of our families at Thousand Oaks Little League today. The time honored tradition of baseball fills the lives of our parents, grandparents and children just as it did for the Gorman/Davis Family so many years ago. Thousand Oaks Little League, its Board of Director’s and all the families in our league extend our heart filled condolences to Dick Gorman and the entire Davis Family.

Please take a moment to say a prayer for the Gorman/Davis family.
