A gentle giant has passed away. Bill Friday will be missed in North Carolina.
Peace to his wonderful wife, and family. God bless all of you.
Bill Friday was a friend and a mentor to us when we are Carolinain the 50's. We will miss his sage advice and warm concern for us.

I had the honor of knowing Mr. Friday from 2001 to 2007, serving him coffee from an on-campus coffeeshop twice daily and seeing him otherwise. To his wife and family whom I do not know, perhaps it is some consolation for you that those that pass on we carry with us in our memories as we remember them, with all their strengths and virtues, the rest of our lives. In that way, they never leave us, and we can be glad that we had them as long as we did. My condolences.

It's almost like I was a family friend
way back in the 70's as a staff employee
when I would encounter Bill Friday on
campus and he always stopped to say
"HI" but stopped, I mean, never continued to walk away. It made me feel very secure and happy to have
this wonderful man in my liftime.
My husband also felt the same way
as we both were secure in our positions
at the university.
