I can only image what went on in heaven when Mr. Nolan met William Shakespeare. Who was more appreciative of the other? Mr. Nolan changed many lives through his imaginative and gifted teaching. So many of us are better people for it. I am eternally thankful for what you bestowed upon me. Rest in peace. You left this world a much better place than you found it.

He was simply the best teacher I have ever known. It is said that a teacher never knows where his influence ends. Bill Nolan's influence lives on.

"Good Night, Good night! Parting is such sweet sorrow, that I shall say good night till it be morrow."

Rest in peace, Mr. Nolan. Teacher, Humanitarian, Changer of Lives.

With eternal thanks

Bill was my English and Humanities teacher as a senior at Wallington High School 36 years ago. He introduced me to the wonders of Shakespeare

Bill Nolan was the epitome of what being a great teacher is all about. Who could forget him standing on his desk belting out Shakespeare without a book. "Cowards die many times before their deaths" but Bill lived a full, rich life that he shared with all of us. For that I am grateful.

Bill was a true Gentleman, respected and revered in Opera Circles. The joy and pleasure of his intellect and appreciation of operas nationally and internationally. Texas loved Bill.
