Dear Family members of Bill's great family:
I met Bill in 1968, when he came to the Flint office of Consumers and recruited me to work for him in Jackson. I reported to Bill as Department Manager of Land and Right of Way for the next 26 years, when I was transferred to Hydro Operations at Cadillac. I will always remember his smile and distinctive demeanor.

It was a pleasure and honor for us to know Bill since 1973. What a great gentleman who always had a smile and quick wit. Always said he was doing o.k. for an "Old Guy" for at least the last 20 years. Enjoyed making music with him in several ways and Tuning his piano. He will be sorely missed by so many and his loving Church - Westminster Presbyterian that HE was one of the Founding members. RIP Bill and enjoy that heavenly Choir and say hi to Woodie, Wally and Jim!

I had the pleasure to work for Bill at Palisades. He was a great boss and mentor. Bill always had great stories about working in General Safety. He will be missed. God Bless.

Bill was a charter member of my Jackson Men's Chorus. The room always got brighter when Bill entered. I thought of him as my own Mr. Rogers; a kinder, gentler man I have not known. Say hi to Marlene for me.

I had the pleasure of working with Bill for several years. A true professional and an all around good man.
