More than golf, Casper was devoted to family. He had 11 children, six of them adopted, and became a Mormon just as his career was taking off.

RIP, Billy. Even as a kid, I remember the epic battle you and Arnold Palmer had in the 1966 U.S. Open.

Now, on a quiet foggy morning on the local golf course, just listen to the whisper in the breeze ...... ‘Fore!’
Ave’ Billy Casper, I watched ye when I was young.

One more note on Billy Casper:
Casper is survived by his wife, 11 children, six of whom are adopted, and 71 grandchildren and great grandchildren.
Wow!
