Not sure what to say?

Bill and I were both classmates in the Navy's Electronics "A" school in Treasure Island. We were the last two members of the base ham radio club K6NCG. He went to Nuke school and I to "C" school. I last saw him with his new wife in Vallejo, CA at Nuke School. It seems all my old shipmates have passed on. Fair winds and following seas my old friend.

Ted Coats yes it is his call was upgraded to something else. I went to BOCES with Bill. Don N6ULC.

Just wondering if this was the Bill I went to Electronics school with in the Navy at Treasure Island in San Francisco. His call was WB2PFW? My call is ND3Q.

Shauni, So sorry to hear of Bill's passing. Know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family at this time. Hope to see you soon.

Worked with Bill many years at RF Communications. Unfortunately we lost touch after I retired. Sorry to hear of Bill's passing.

I was saddened to hear the news of Bills Passing. I worked with him for years on a daily basis at Harris Rf. He was always cheerfull and optimistic. I am glad to have known him and will miss him.

Condolences to the entire McDonnell family. Our prayers are with you.

Fond memories of Bill, who was always a hard worker and a pleasure to work with at RF Comm.

Bill was a great friend that we knew we could always rely on. We will always remember his sense of humor and passion for amateur radio.

Like Chris, I also remember Bill from Product Service all those years ago. Rest in peace.
