I met Bill (one Ton) in the late 80’s. He would ride with me when I was investigating fires in the City of Buffalo. Bill rode with me for years. He was kind, considerate and a very generous person. Rest in peace Bill.

I knew Bill back in the 70s when we both worked at the Town of Amherst Museum/Pioneer Village. He was a good guy who always brought a sense of humor to work every day. RIP Bill.
