William H. Bengtson

Bill was my art photographer for several years. He was a master at that. And he was the sweetest man. He would come to my house, have coffee and share stories. His were definitely more interesting than mine. I had the pleasure of seeing his last photography exhibit at the Ed Pashke center. What a treat it was. I really miss Bill. My condolences to his family.

I was shocked to hear of Billy´s passing just last night. We worked together at Phyllis Kind gallery for many years where his humor and sense of mischief made the days interesting and fun. His exquisite photography informed many. RIP, Billy.

Good memories are never forgotten.

Sending our sympathy and condolences to family of Uncle Bill. I have so many great memories of Uncle Bill.

Classic Bill. Creator and doer.

Back in the day we had a regular Monday golf game ...... and those were the days! RIP Mr Bill!

Bill was also an avid MUSIC LOVER. His eclecticism was contagious! As a youngster growing up in the 70s and 80s, Bill turned me on to acts I had never heard of before. Everyone from Muddy Waters and Johnny Winter to Mink Deville and Graham Parker, Culture Club and ABC. THANK YOU BILLY!

So sad to learn Billy was ill and passed...such a funny and silly guy...I have many memories

My fondest hope is that Billy is making mischief with Karl Wirsum in another realm.
