BIG BILL WAS A MAN ABOVE ALL MEN. THERE WAS NO PROJECT , NO TASK THAT BILL COULD NOT HANDLE. HE VOLUNTEERED FOR EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING AND WAS ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH ON SCHEDULE AND TO A CLIENTS SATIFACTION. I WORKED FOR BILL FOR OVER 20 YEARS AND ENJOYED EVERY DAY. IF SOMEONE WANTED TO BUILD A PLANT ON THE MOON HIS FIRST QUESTION WOULD BE WHEN DO YOU IT TO OPEN. HE COULD ACCOMPLISH THE IMMPOSSIBLE. I WILL MISS BILL AS I KNOW WE ALL WILL.
BILL IT IS YOUR TIME TO REST IN PEACE

Bill was a great boss, taught me a lot about business and how to get things done. I also enjoyed the many rounds of golf that we played together and the meetings at the 19th hole. Rest in peace Bill!

Cheers Bill, I will forever miss all the hunting, fishing and good times we shared. The conversation was always interesting and fun. I will continue to tell the stories we created throughout the many years and many trips we took, bear hunting in Canada, fishing in Florida, South Carolina and New Jersey, Deer hunts in PA, Wyoming and Georgia. Your presence always made it an adventure of a life time. Till we meet again my friend!
