Truly a Prince among Men! Bill was a loving, funny, sweet guy. I'll always remember his art, his gentleness, how he made others happy. Bill was my dad's closest friend throughout their lives, and I will never forget him. Love to Chad, Shana, Shari, and everyone else who loved him. Juli Adams

How I wish the miles weren't so many between Clotho and Fresno - I would so love to be at your farewell party, William. You have been a spark in my life for lots and lots of years, my dear friend. You always made me laugh at your silly antics. Though we didn't do much dancing in our later years (didn't do much in our earlier years, mostly just talked about it), when I reach those pearly gates, we will have a dance and you can ask, "How long you been here?" I love you, William, today and forever.
