To the Kenney family,
I knew Bill quite well back in the latter years of the 1970s and early 1980s at which time he was the head librarian in the JAG library. I got to know Bill quite well and he was always of considerable assistance in any research I needed to have done on any cases I was working on or on legal opinions I was preparing. He was a very conscientious and hardworking individual who earned the respect of all of the JAG lawyers at that time. I was saddened to learn of his passing and extend my condolences to all of you.
