I remember Dr. Wehrmacher from the time when I worked in the Department of Physiology at Loyola University. It was always great fun talking to him. He had such an open mind and a great sense of humor.

Dr. Wehrmacher was a friend of my mom for many years. She always spoke fondly of him and enjoyed the time that she worked for him. Our condolences go out to his family.

"Doc" will be greatly missed. His warm welcoming Hello Neighbor greeted us and other neighbors. He was eager to talk and his brilliant mind and keen humor resonated with a genuine HELLO neighbor,communicating I am glad you are my neighbor!

I remember Bill like it was yesterday.He frequently had lunch with Bob Milnickel and me at the Cliffdwellers club. He was always the center of our conversations and had the best sense of humor of all of us. He was also a longtime friend of Vito Pascucci, a well known manufacturer of French made musical instruments and I borrowed a few from Bill from time to time.His tales about our brother lawyers were the funniest we ever heard. It was a pleasure to be in his company. Vince Reilly.
