Bill was a fine attorney and a gentleman. He was a zealous advocate, and someone whoseI word could be trusted. He made the legal profession better. I liked him, and I will miss him as both a lawyer and a friend.

Bill and I were great friends as we grew up next to each other on Keystone Ave. Memories are flashing through my mind as I think about him. Playing ball in the street...Climbing on the roofs of each others houses...At one point we even had a pulley system that carried a basket between our houses. It must have been the first twitter! So sorry for your loss at way to young of an age.

Laura -

I am so deeply sorry and saddened to hear about Bill. As you may remember, Bill and I started the same day at the PD's office in 1987. We learned the "ropes" together. I gained a trusted colleague and friend. I will always remember and cherish the many laughs we had together whether it was at "The Den", the office or at your home in Beverly Shores. Peace, Bill

Joe and I were shocked and devastated to hear of Billy's passing. Our deepest expression of sympathy to Laura and Archie and Emmett as well as all of Billy's family and friends. Billy had the best laugh and the biggest heart. Generous and kind and a wicked sense of humor, all the best stuff. Joe is on a road trip by himself going West and was in South Dakota when he got the news. Stopped him in his tracks. God bless.
