I never met the man--But he sounds like a good family man, friend, and a guy you'd like to fish with, and share a few beers afterwards telling "the truth" about the catches of the day.
Rest in peace, fellow fisherman.

What an incredible life story! Your father and grandfather modeled so many positive examples of how to live a meaningful life. Above and beyond his professional accomplishments, service to our country and philanthropy, his 63-year loving marriage and the legacy of children and grandchildren shine on as his most meaningful achievements. My thoughts are with you, Cindy, Doug, Anna and Charlie. I'm so glad he spent his last years here where you could be together often! Lots of love,

Dear Children of Bill......My husband Myron worked with him and I have fond memories of the time we spent with him and your mother at one of the Kentucky Derbies. I found him always fun to be with, and I really learned a lot from your mom...Janet M. Roeder
