RIP. A lot of good things being said about him. That is a success in my book. Last grandchild of Henry btw.

I went to the High School named after his dad. That family was royalty in that neck of the woods. (Ford Woods, see what I did there? ha ha).

Last of a generation to pass away. Amazing how the family has been able to maintain control of the company over all these years.

He was a good family man, business man (in auto industry), and philanthropist.

Last link perhaps to greatest era in Michigan-Detroit history.

Too bad so many will only remember him as owner of the Lions and for their futility last 50 years.

Is it fair to say Lions fans are having their Bill Wirtz moment?

No, probably not.

A lot of suffering Lions fans have waited for this day. We'll see if his demise changes the culture of this program or undoes the Bobby Lane curse.

I was more waiting for the day that someone else would be running the operation, like Bill Jr., not so much that William Clay Ford would pass away.

It's not fair for you say that.

Still worried. Evil boy.

WTF does that mean?

You haven't made light of any mass murders lately. What's the holdup?
