He Betsy I wanted to offer my deepest sympathy on the loss of your husband Bill. I remember him coming to my 4th grade classroom with Miss Luke that Andy was also in with me. I remember the Mock court that he did with us and how much fun it was to do. I know he is out of pain and I did not even know he was sick. May God Bless your family during this time. With Love Bob & Joyce Clune. I am married and living in TX with my Wife Joyce.

Betsy,
words are not enough to express our deep and heartfelt sympathy for your loss. I learned the art of trial advocacy as a trial counsel in his military court room many years ago.

I spent many a day in this man's courtroom and chambers. He always took he time to help and educate a "baby narc" with search warrants and other matters. He was a very honorable man and I am truly sorry to hear of his passing. May he rest in peace.

Betsy -- I was so sorry to see the notice of Bill's death from STM's e-mail several weeks ago. The obituary today was beautifully done in the UT -- I didn't know any of that information about Bill and his amazing life and accomplishments.

Thinking of you losing your beloved mate is heart-wrenching....
