I worked with Bill for a number of years and participated in all the activities he worked on. What a great GREAT guy!!! I asked him out once, and although he turned me down that showed how much I thought of him. Such a great personality, such a great sense of humor. You most definitely will be missed by so many. We'll all meet again someday over that rainbow.
