Norman was my grandpa. He always inspired me. He was a good role model.

Bill Jr. Carey

April 5, 2011

One important thing everyone needs to know about Bill Sr., my father, is that I have looked at him as a hero and good father. Everything a father should be to his children. Athletes and celeb's are not role models. Fathers and Mothers are. Children become part of what their parents are. For those of you who knew him well, you may know this. For those who didn't, be a hero to your children. Be the man my father was to me. You will be cherished forever. I love you Dad, tell Mark I love him to. See you when God decides we will all be together again
