To Bill's family, My sincere condolences to you all. Bill was such a warm, friendly, and always helpful guy! We went to Mt. Vernon Elementary together and a bit at Fenger. Seeing him at the last class reunion brought back many great memories along with Carl Olson and Jim Palermo. Bill stayed in touch over the years, and always kept me informed of classmates' moves, new telephone numbers, other news, and sadly-deaths. I am so sorry for your loss. He was a very special person! Barb (Izzett) Swanson (Mt. Vernon-class of Jan. 1955, Fenger-class of Jan. '59.
