âMr. Horlick was one of the very best citizens I have ever known. He was a great benefactor and the people of Racine are under heavy obligation to him for his many contributions to the advancement and improvement of the city. He was a man of high ideals, and his death will be one of the greatest losses Racine has had for many years.â
â Henry C. Baker
While his name lives on at William Horlick High School on Rapids Drive and several blocks away at Horlick Athletic Field on High Street, today little is known about William Horlick, the man behind the name.
