Not sure what to say?

Dear Tammy and Dana, so very sorry to hear about the passing of Bill. My prayers are with you during this difficult time. Mary and Cody Kutil, Wausau, WI.

It is with saddened that I received the news of Bill passing. Bill was an inspiration for me when I started my career at BRP. I will always remember when I first visited Wausau, he took care of me like if we knew each other for ever. He was generous, patient and shared his knowledge with anyone even with young non experimented "Graineux" (Bill knows what I am talking about) like I was at that time.

All my thought and prayers goes to Bill family, he will always remain in my...

Tammy and Dana , so sad to hear about Bill. I'm sure he'll be greatly missed. It sounds like he had many friends and enjoyed what he did. My prayers go out to you and your families.

Tammy and Dana:

I am so sorry to hear about Bill's passing, but I am happy that he is no longer in pain. I hope you know what an impact he made on so many people.

Bill and I worked together at Ski-Doo from 1995 to 2000 when I led race marketing and we did some great things and traveled all over North America together - from Eagle River to Epping, NH to Fairbanks, AK and 100 towns in between.

We spent dozens of weekends every year at the sweaty Haydays and...

I'm so very sorry and saddened to hear of Bill's passing!!! My heart aches for Tammy, Dana and the rest of the Rader/Vercoe families!! Bill was such a great guy with an amazing sense of humor! Sending Love, Hugs, and Prayers to you all!!!

I knew Bill from working at Bombadier and also racing the the USSA division. He was a tremendous man and felt very honored to know him. May peace be with you and your entire family during this very difficult time

To the Rader Family: Bill was a HUGE part of our racing success with both Skidoo and Polaris. He helped our team (7 members) at Skidoo as we were together for testing and shows on several occations. On race day-many years-he was the best ally you could ask for. When we decided to take my son Chas racing, I called Bill. We were automatically accepted as part of the Polaris family and I had a machine inside of one week. His techinal support was outstanding...he was an even better friend. ...

My deepest sympathy goes out to Bill's family & friends. I went to school with "Billy Rader" as we all called him back here in Ishpeming. I have just the nicest memories of him through out our school years. Bill will surely be missed. He was a great guy.
May God hold all of you in the palm of His hand.
