Like many of our classmates, I am saddened by Bill's tragic passing. In high school I always thought he was a special guy who was a true artist and poet at heart. I am sure his family and friends will miss him dearly.

Bill was such a kind man. Botanical Bill. His garden was wonderful. And he played guitar with joy. I often think of him when I drive Bay road. Sorry for your loss

We were so sad to hear of Uncle Bill's unexpected passing. He was generous and always there to care for his Mother. I will always remember the pearls he would send me every year for Christmas when I was a little girl. Our deepest condolences, The Aaker Family
