Sherron, I was very saddened to hear of Bill's passing. It is hard to believe that it has been 50 years since we were Air Force roommates. I remember him and the Muma family fondly. You have my sencere condolences.

I served with Bill at Fairchild AFB, Spokane, Washington for two years. He and Bob Langner and I roomed together and worked together. He was quite the character, in a fun and quirky way. The three of us had a great experience together and I cherish the memories. We had just recently reconnected on Facebook. He will be sorely missed. I also had the pleasure to Meet his mother and two sisters. Wonderful family. He will brighten Heaven for sure!!

Sherron -

Bill was a super special person and I'm so glad I was lucky enough to call him cousin. We will certainly miss his wry sense of humor and his ability to make others laugh and smile. I can't begin to imagine the loss you are feeling. Just remember, we're all here for you and the family.
