Sincere condolences to all of Bills family. Many great memories of his performances in the St. Pats plays. But favorite memory is from a few years back when he was in the audience. After the show, I told him what a great job Denise did on her solo, and he was so pleased to see her shine in the spotlight. What a great Dad!
