Dick Weber is the only person who could draw all those people to St. Louis. It was a pretty moving thing. |
He had a pretty good fire inside, and when he put his mind to something, he was going to make it work. |
He was a great role model and a legend. He was Mr. Bowling. Whatever needed to be done to help promote the sport, he did it. |
If you want to go through everybody - Don Carter, Weber, Hardwick - Billy was the guy. His mental toughness and determination made him unique. |
It was the start of a downward slide. Being that far away when something like that happened, it was just brutal. |
