708-766-3232. Chicago Tribune, Friday, June 28, 1996 Section 2 11 OBITUARIES Ottilie, 46, William T. Linda Young TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER William T. Ottilie, 46, mayor of Geneva, was known as a champion of controlled growth and development in the Fox River community. A resident of Geneva for more than a decade, Mayor Ottilie died in 1 Monroe County, late Tuesday of injuries sustained in a one car accident.

"He was very sincere, straight up and very honest about everything," said Roger Morris, a long. time friend and a former Geneva alderman. "He was the kind of mayor who would make the final decision, but he would leave people alone and let them do their work." Mayor Ottilie, who was born in Bakersfield, moved to Geneva from Iowa in 1985. He was appointed alderman of the 3rd Ward in 1987 and two years later won a three-way race for mayor. He was re-elected without opposition in 1993 and was expected to seek a third term next year.

Aficionado of Sherlock Holmes tales By Kenan Heise TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER Thomas F. McGee, 66, a retired supervising caseworker for the Illinois Department of Public Aid, was an avid fan of fictional detective Sherlock Holmes and helped raise funds so that the complete stories of his adventures would be available in every public library in Chicago. He also was a playwright and inventor of games. A resident of Littleton, where he moved from Chicago last year, he died in a hospital there Tuesday. His career as a social worker spanned 36 years.

He had a degree in social work from the University of Washington and had done graduate work in the field at the University of Chicago. His first job was as a copy assistant in the city room of the Tribune, followed by service as an Army cryptographer during the Korean War. He also worked for a while as a commercial artist in New York City. A Sherlock Holmes fan since childhood, he was a member of two Chicago Holmes' organizations: Hugo's Companions and the Hounds of the Baskervilles. He was also in the Baker Street Irregulars, a national organization based in New York.

In the 1970s, he served as a member of the Associates of Lomax, a group that collected books and money to promote the reading of Sherlock Holmes through the Chicago Public Library. Two of his plays had staged readings at the Playwrights Center. He produced a Sherlock Holmes chess set and invented the children's math game Multables. Survivors include his wife, Bette; two daughters, Amy Osborne and Kathryn Nikjoo; his mother, Ruth; a sister; and two grandsons. Plans for a memorial service were pending.
