Bill Cowher's wife lost a battle with skin cancer at 54. This is horrible news. http://content.usatoday.com/communi...coach-bill-cowhers-wife-dies-of-skin-cancer/1 My heart goes out to a great man and a great family.
I lost one of my closest friends to lung cancer 2 months ago (yes, the one from the smoking thread) And as bad as that hurts, and the weird feelings over him just not being here anymore when I think of something I want to tell him...god, I can't imagine how much worse losing your wife has to be. What with it being cancer again, I kinda got a little bleary eyed when I read about this today. I swear, I don't know what life would mean anymore if I lost everything like that. I feel so bad for him and his family. RIP.
Okay it makes sense why he retire. Jim Kaat did the same thing with YES, when he wife was ill he spent a year or two off to be with her. I send my condolences to the Cower family. Bill take your time, you are in no rush to coach again. Family first.
My deepest condolences to the family. I always wondered why he retired when he did. Now I know it was to be with his family. Makes me respect the man even more.
I came within a hair of losing my wife last month so I know how he must feel........... This sucks....Just lost a friend from hockey too. All this death sucks.
Thats horrible, I hope everything is ok with you for the moment. RIP Kay, and thoughts and prayes for Bill and his kids.
Just horrific. My partner's cousin is being treated for the same thing now and is a similar age to Mrs Cowher. It's definitely rough on everyone.
I wonder if that drives him back to coaching. He obviously has more free time as an announcer and he originally left coaching to be with family.
