To the Bachmann family, My thoughts and prayers. So many good memories of Mr. Bachmann, from all the Cubs games we went to and Blackhawks games, having John and Mr. Bachmann over at our old apt to watch playoff games. He was always a joy to be around and could put a big smile on your face. I’m deeply sorry I found out this late. Love to Mrs. Bachmann, Rachel and John. Rest In Peace Mr. Bachmann and one day we shale meet again, until then Go Cubbies. Love, thoughts and prayers Patrick & Alice.
