To Bill's family:
I am very sorry for your loss.
I had the honor and pleasure to work with Bill at Motion Control for almost ten years. I just heard about his passing today. I can only say what you already know, he was a man of principle with the upmost integrity. I will always smile when I think of Bill, he was a standup guy!

I worked with Bill at ABB or back then Brown Boveri for years. He was a joy to be a co-worker with and was a good man.
Speaking for all the old timers at work, we will miss him dearly. Life just seems to short sometimes but I feel that Bill did live a full life. I am so sorry he is gone and wish his surviving family the best in his memory.
