Virginia McCaskey, the longtime owner of the Chicago Bears, has passed away at the age of 102. McCaskey inherited the team from her father, George Halas, in 1983 and had been at the helm for over four decades. She was known for her dedication to the Bears players, coaches, staff, and fans, making business decisions that were in their best interests.
Under McCaskey's ownership, the Bears achieved great success, winning a Super Bowl in 1986 and making another appearance in the championship game 21 years later. She kept the team within the family, passing operational control to her son, Michael McCaskey, who later handed over the reins to her other son, George McCaskey.
