As a staff member at Land-of-Sky Regional Council, I remember serving under Bill Ives when he was a member, and then chairman of our board. He was indeed a tireless worker, always full of energy. He inspired all of our staff. Bill lived a good life, and will be greatly missed. Blessings to all of his family.
