Cavarretta died at a hospice care center in Lilburn, Ga., of complications from a stroke, according to family members.
His son, Phil Cavarretta Jr., of Lilburn, told The Associated Press in a phone interview that his father suffered the stroke about a week ago. He also had been battling leukemia for several years, but that was in remission, Cavarretta Jr. said.
"If he went 0 for 4, he wouldn't bring that home," Cavarretta Jr. said. "He would enjoy his family, then he went about his business the next day."
