Dear Bill, Marlene, BJ, and Patty - I just heard about Billy's tragic death and my heart goes out to all of you. Billy was such nice person, with a great big heart and smile. I so enjoyed working with him (and all of you) at KSS. Molly and Maggie, your dad loved you both more than you can imagine.

My condolences and prayers for the Koonz family for this tragic loss. I taught Billy at Oratory Prep many years ago, and even then it was obvious that he would be a truly fine man. The world is lessened by the loss of such good people.
