Stanley and family,
I'm sorry to read about Bill's passing! I knew Bill for almost 50 years having been associated with him thru Football and basketball officiating. I can recall numerous times meeting with him for breakfast and when it came time to pay the check he would take out this old bill and say that was all that he had on him. Bill was a super nice guy who was beloved by many and will be sorely missed by all. I will keep him in my prayers and may Bill rest in peace.

We love Bill Higgins. Mr. Basketball, Mr. Everything. He was the greatest guy we ever had the privilege of knowing. How fortunate we were to have had him in Fonda-Fultonville.
