Just learned of Bill's passing last evening. Know it's late to be writing this, but it's never too late to extend condolences to the family or to say that, as a classmate of Bill's at BHS, I have fond memories of him as a solid, sensible fellow with a twinkle in his eye--a good student and a great classmate. Just want the family to know that even among those who hadn't seen Bill in many years, there are positive and lasting memories of him!
