Shirley and Mike, Our deepest condolences. We can only share your grief on the loss of a dedicated and caring husband and father. Yet, we can celebrate since Jack Brickhouse and Harry Carey have another fan in His Bleachers. Our prayers and thoughts are with you.

I could not have asked for a more loving, kind, funny and smart brother-in-law. From the very first day I met him, you and he, Shirley, were both so sweet to me. Bill was a wonderful man and I am privileged to have been part of his and your lives. He made it so clear how much he adored and was so proud of his family and I'm so grateful to have had Easter that past year with all of you. I am so sorry for your loss, Shirley and Mike and Julie and your girls and all the Kujaks and friends and relatives who loved him, including me. What a great guy he was, the absolute best. I'm so glad he got to see the Cubs win the World series.
