But he probably could of picked a better town for this restaurant than Berwyn.
November 30, 20196 yr We went to BHB in Berwyn once. One of the more terrible restaurant experiences I’ve had.

December 1, 20196 yr Author surprised no one commented about KW's son having a "special assignment" role. There was also another Williams who had a position out in Lisle, but I dont think she's related.

His reputation as a business man is pretty poor. I can second this. I happen to know someone who has had some dealings with one of his ventures, and they were not high on him or his abilities from a professional business level. Frank was a great ball player, but that doesn’t make you good with money or a good business man.
