So sorry to hear of Bill's passing. He was such a fun person and excellent athlete. We spent many summer weekends playing fastpitch softball with Billy.

Even thought he was a underclassman, I remember Bill as a nice and talented guy. One of those people you knew would be successful in life.

I had a small crush on Bill our freshman year. I don't recall much about it, but I remember that feeling. I remember dancing with him one time at some party or other event, "close dancing," as we said in those days, and I thouight my heart would melt. Nothing ever came of it, but he was always friendly, gracious, kind, and easy to be with. I thought of him often over the years and wondered what became of him. My heart goes out to his family for their loss. I hope you have many wonderful memories of your years together.

Thinking of "Billy" always makes me smile. I remember tracking him down to make sure he attended our 50th reunion, and was so pleased to see him attend the Friday night gathering. His smile and humor always added so much to everyone's life, including mine. I had some great humorous moments with him that I'll always remember. My thoughts are with Roxanne during such a difficult time of loss.
