Our lockers were close at Fenwick, I know he will be missed

To Bill's family - sincere condolences. I met Bill through his work at LMH and worked with him when he served on the hospital IRB. He was always serving the needs of others - any task any time, with humor and with great intelligence. He encouraged others to think with humor and grace. He will be missed by so many. Thank you for your gift of Bill to all of us touched by him.

Bill and Mary are great neighbors and I will miss talking to Bill at the mail box! Mary is in our prayers!

Mary, my condolences to you and your daughters.

By his example, Bill showed us what right living is.

I met Bill at LMH during our shared volunteer time. He will be so missed....always a fun interaction, his dry wit caught me every time. What a wonderful legacy he leaves. My sympathies to the family.

My deepest condolences. Bill was a wonderful man! He will be truly missed! I always enjoyed visiting with him as he came through the history department at Washburn even after he retired. May he rest peacefully knowing he was beloved by many.
