I had the pleasure of knowing Coach O'Neil when I was a cheerleader at MSU in the mid-80s. He was tough but kind. I thought the world of him and want to extend my deepest sympathies to his wife and family. God Bless You.

R.I.P. My former colleague and friend. Bill provided counsel for not only our student athletes, but also colleagues if solicited. I learned a great deal about life challenges from Coach O. Your leadership example remains, but the mold is broken.
