Some of my first memories are of watching him when he was with the Padres from 1974-1976. He, Dave Winfield and Randy Jones, are my three favorite Padres of all-time. I still remember getting his autograph as he came off an elevator from the clubhouse at SD Stadium back in 1974, and I still have the ball he signed.
Rest in Peace Willie.
