I am saddened to learn of Bill's passing. We met when I worked for Michigan National Bank and he for Harness Dickey, and became immediate friends. I will remember him as a wonderful and interesting man, a true gentleman. May god bless him and keep him safe. Fly high with the angels Bill, you have earned your wings.

Bob, I'm sorry for your loss, may God bless. I just remember some of the cars your dad let us cruise Woodward with.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all. "Uncle Bill" was an amazing man and he was loved by all our family. For so many years we got the blessing of seeing him daily. Know my dad was there to give him a hug when he got to heaven!
