From an Ayers obituary

Ayers and Daley

Obituaries from his daughter's blog TMLutas (talk) 01:36, 31 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. This is arguably the most powerful person in Chicago and thereby Illinois under a long period - more powerful than the Daley dynasty which he in many ways controlled. Thinking Tom Ayers is not notable is just ludicrous.

That's great . . . so why not take a couple of minutes to improve the article by providing detail about his notability and adding a few of what must be a wide array of significant coverage in reliable sources? Bongomatic (talk) 04:48, 9 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
