We are so sad to hear of Bill's passing. Brian and Bill go back to the mid sixties when they both lived on Seminary Rd. Their kids went to the same school. We managed to spend some good times with him and Marion,mostly attending concerts, discussing politics and enjoying good food. Bill had a very dry wit and liked to tease me about my Irish accent. We will miss him.
