Was fortunate to have known "Bill" since The Newark School of Fine & Industrial Art in the late 60' s... and after achieving his BFA from Maryland Institute College of Art when he studied under the late Samuel Breecher of NYC- his Mentor. Later we ventured out on sojourns/lively conversations around the town of Cranford . He was a proud gentleman whose reserved quick wit served him well - almost to the point of no return. Bill attained the sensibilities and acuity of an voluminous accomplished Representational Fine Arts Painter with amazing zeal who was quoted as saying "...all I want to do is paint " He knew instantaneously who all the Renaissance Great Masters studied their craft under too.
Rest in Final Peace with all the Colors of the Universe. You left so many memories for us all.
