I was hired by Bill to coach football and track in 1965 at Boude Storey.We enjoyed a great teaching staff and great athletes until we both moved to Gaston Junior High in 1971 where he won the last City Championship in 1976. Bills career was as glamorize and exciting as the wonderful people he enjoyed teaching and coached. Undoubtedly those who surrounded Bill will never forget the bright light he was to their lives.
