William Drayton "Bill" Stutts

Will never forget all the memorable and fun times we had over the many years. Bill was an exceptional person with a dynamic personality that we all envied.

Dear Cindy, I am saddened to read of Bill's death, and I want to extend my condolences to you. He was a delightful person, and I fondly remember many a happy wine tasting and dinner with Bill and you, especially the New Year's Eve lunch you two arranged at Montrachet. Please let me know when you have planned the memorial for Bill, as I would like to attend. I look forward to seeing you.

I met Bill about 25 years ago in NYC at a wine tasting... He was a delightful man in every sense of the word. His love for his wife Cindy was ever present and I enjoyed many meals with them. Bill had a great appreciation for wines, and we drank many, many bottles together, both in NYC, as well as in Millbrook where we would gather each spring and fall for outdoor picnics on the lawn of the winery. Bill taught me how to notice the finest details of life, he could get lost in the flavors of...

I was so sad to hear the news about Bill. He and I actually "grew up" together in NYC. Many nights at the Raveled Sleeve and had many fun times over the years. My heart goes out to Cindy. He will be missed.

So blessed to be part of the Stutts and University of Alabama Family. Faithful, loyal and true Bill was. Bill´s footprints in NYC will forever shine his love for our state and University.Thank you Stutts family for sharing what love and loyalty mean. RTR Philip Young

Have known Bill for almost all of my life and I was blessed to have been a part of his life and the Stutts family. Bill was a leader and one of the best athletes l have ever seen. He always followed his heart and would find success in his work and his interests. My thoughts and prayers go by out to his wife and the family. He will be missed.

Just learned of Bill´s passing and want to offer my condolence to his family.

I went to junior high with Bill and, later, competed with him when he was at Darlington and I was at Marion. Not only was he an exceptional athlete, but he exhibited a sportsmanship that was exemplary. My condolences to Russell, Susan, and all the rest of the Stutts family
