Read MoreMr B was a great man, mentor, and friend. After each time I spoke with him I felt smarter and happier. His stories I could listen to for hours and he was always so generous with his time. I am better having known him and miss him deeply

Sending condolences to Bartholomay family. I would have liked to talk sports with WB, after meeting his daughter Betsy at the Sandburg Village condos in the famous Chicago Gold Coast.

I didn't have the honor to get to know Mr. Bartholomay but saw him all the time in the Chicago office. He inspired me to rethink the purpose of work and what it means to maintain a professional life. A true legend, he influenced so many lives without the realization. Thank you, Mr. B.!
