Today we mourn the man who I had the privilege of knowing my whole life, a man who I consider family, and will always remember as Uncle Willie. This year Raider Nation and the Raiders family has been hit hard with the loss of Cliff Branch, Neiron Ball and now Willie Brown.
As I sit down to pay my respects, the memories of William Ferdie Brown, affectionately known as ‘Old Man Willie’ to friends, fans and family fill my head, and I cant help to think of the countless people in this world that he had touched.
