Not sure what to say?

I was very sad to learn of Bill’s passing. He was a kind, considerate man with an impressive depth of knowledge on just about any subject. I never knew him to say an unkind word about anybody.

You don't meet a man like Bill every day. He was truly a gentleman and a scholar, with his quiet sense of humor and always graceful manner. I won't forget him.

I learned with sorrow of death William Wanamaker, an inspiring teacher who taught not only the facts of history and geography for many years at St. Stephen's but, more importantly how to go about the art of learning, how to ask the right questions to get the right answers. He has left a lasting impact.
