I was casually reading nytimes.com and came across an obituary for Billy Reedy, a family friend, better known as the owner of Reedy's Bar in Corktown [[which later became The Works), and even better known as the friend of Billy Martin who, at first, claimed to be the driver in the drunk driving crash that killed Martin in 1989. A little surprised to see his obit there--NYT usually only highlights more "famous" people, though I guess it is New York-related: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/10/ny...ref=obituaries
