A great husband and a kind gentleman!

What a blessing it was to know Bill. He was always such a joyful and humorous presence at our family gatherings. He was always the quickest wit in any room and he was at the VERY top of my Who Wants To Be A Millionaire phone-a-friend list when I was trying out. He knew SO much about SO many things! Sports and literature and history and geography and music and on and on. He will be missed by so many. Love you so much, Bill, and will miss you.

Sharon and Family I am so sorry to hear about Bill My thoughts and Prayers are with yall at this time

Doc O , a remarkable man and legend of southern wv and education of his decendants. God Bless his soul and his family.

To Sharon and family, please know you are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. May God wrap His arms around you and give you peace and comfort.

I loved Dr Ofsa and had great respect for him. I went to college as an older student and he helped me by giving me a test to enter college. He was my advisor even though I was not in his department of teaching. He saw my eagerness to learn and did what he could to help. He was always pleasant and helpful to the students of the college and was concerned that they learn much. He will be sorely missed!

Dr. Ofsa was my favorite teacher at CU when I went to school there. He was always so kind and compassionate to all of his students. I learned alot from him. I will never forget the year he shared his birthday cake with us, and that it was carrot cake because he and I bonded over that being our favorite flavor cake. You will be so missed.

LOVE AND PRAYERS TO SHARON AND THE FAMILY
