Bill was a very caring, generous guy. I am grateful to have known him, especially as we practiced Service Above Self in the Rotary Club of Saint Paul. My condolences to Harriet and his family. He is missed.

I'll always remember Bill's smiling face. We worked hard together and had a good time at SME. I remember fun biz chats in Bill's office. And I'll always remember his kindness shown to my son.
Our thoughts are with Harriet and family. He was a great guy!
