Bill was an institution, a friendly face, and a fount of knowledge. One of the key members that helped create and hold this community together. I will miss him as will many of my neighbors and friends.

Mourning the loss of a neighborhood and North Arlington institution. RIP Bill. My family and I will think of you whenever we go to Bill's Hardware (which is often).

Bill was a super-helpful and friendly person and did a lot for the community in Arlington (and no doubt beyond). I knew him as a customer at his store on Lee Highway. I will keep his family and friends in my thoughts. I know he will be greatly missed by many.
