When I think of Bill Dempsey a few things come to mind immediately. My Godfather, St Barnabas, the Blue Jays (and his awesome 1st base seats at the Ex) Grey Cup parties, Goodless golf tournaments, Canadian Club, Pepsi, driving me all the way to school on cold winter days because he had time before his train came, collared shirts, his smile. Always a big smile! And his pride in his boys. Always Christopher and David, not the shortened version. As if shortening would take away a little bit of his joy in his boys. Godfather, friend, neighbour, family man. These are the things I will always remember about Bill Dempsey. Rest in peace.
