Not sure what to say?

I flew with Bill a lot when I was an F/O on the '27. He was the best and will be sorely missed.

Am proud to have the same last name as MrBill. Good sendoff to him at the service with the pictures and movie.

Although Bill was my second cousin, first cousin to Sharon my mother he will always be my "Uncle Bill" the man with a smile that lit up the whole room.
Rest in peace Uncle Bill.

Enjoyed flying with Bill. A real gent, and a pleasure to work with.

Bill was always great to be around, on the ground or in the air. He always made the flight a good one with his good cheer and happy smile.

Marla,
My retirement picture from WAL has 3 cartoon charters that bill did on the border.
One of the Wally Bird, one of a happy lion,
and third one at the top Yosemite Sam,
known for his displays of frustration.
I will treasure it always and I think it may be the only one Bill displayed his talent for art work, He was always a great class mate and fellow pilot. I think of him every time I look at the picture in my den.
One of our finest for sure.
Our condolences to you...

An intelligent and gentle man with whom it was always pleasant to share the cockpit.
