Bill, you would be so proud of your family. I recently visited your mother, Loretta, my former co-worker and much-respected friend of more than 40 years. She is truly remarkable, just as you always were.

Bill's mother Loretta will always be a treasured friend. I was very touched when she showed me "Bill's Bench" at the old Cubberley High School field, where Bill got his start as a truly world-class runner -- and a world-class man.

Childhood memories of growing up together in Rochester are still vivid and precious and that time together shaped my life in many important ways. To Bill, Loretta, Rod, Lisa and Nicole, I am truly sorry for your loss.
