William Edward Motzing

This is dedicated to one of the truly nicest and most talented people that I've ever met, in over 80 years! Bill and I met in Amsterdam when he was sound engineer for BS&T....Being the resident American musician in Holland, Bill and some of the others, came to our house after the concert...Upon returning to New York, in the mid 70's he and I resumed our friendship......then, he was headed to Australia! The one thing that I regret, is not having had a better opportunity of getting to know one...

Wonderful memories of Bill writing and conducting the orchestral arrangements for a project I did for the ABC not long after I arrived in Australia. Kirk Lorange

I've sadly just read Bill's obituary, and in doing so found out about Bette's passing too. I came to know them both as we were all patients of Dr Betty Goldsmith and Dr Alfred Gigante, which gave us an intimacy that few people who don't really know the other well can gain. Bette and I shared complex TMD conditions, and so I felt great empathy for what she was living through. The two of them were amazing support for the other; their passion for music and meditation was inspiring. I'm so...

A generous, kind and talented soul, Bill is still sadly missed. I was only wishing the other day that he and Betty were still present in my life brightening my days.
