Miss Bill everyday, he was a magical piece every year at the "Falmouth Classic Golf Tournament" It is not quite the same without him and his famous "bourbon Manhattan's".
Toasting one of the best...

It is June 4th, 2020 and has been just about 7 years since Bill passed on. He is constantly remembered by all his "golfing friends" and when we get together at our "Semi-annual" golf sessions on the Cape, he is one of the main topics with many funny stories involving him. We miss you Bill and YOU WILL NOT BE FORGOTTEN!!!!!!! NOT ONLY THAT BUT YOU CANNOT BE FORGOTTEN!!!!!!!!!!

Bill was kind, caring and funny. He was the kind of man who remembered everyone and made everyone welcome and included. Whether you'd known him for years or had just met him, he made you feel like a friend.
You always knew where Bill was during a party: you just listened for the laughter and the banter and there he'd be, surrounded by new and old friends. Bill was quick-witted and always laughing, but what was truly remarkable was that he was never mean spirited in his humor – you walked away from a conversation with Bill with a smile on your face.
Our deepest condolences go out to Mary and the Libby family for their immeasurable loss.
Bill literally made the world a happier place and will be missed immensely.
