I was blessed to have known Bill, in a very special way, as a father in law, for a brief period in my life. What a great man, and influence he was. I will cherish many special memories of him. May God bless and be with the family during this time.

I worked with Bill on the Daily Messenger Advisory Board a few years ago. I enjoyed his thoughtful comments and his many guest essays in the paper, though I rarely agreed with him politically. His voice will be missed!
