Bill and Ann were my amazing neighbors on Springview Drive for years---Bill was always SO funny and fun to be around and Ann is a marvel of a gardener. I was so sorry to hear of Bill's passing and would very much like to see Ann when all of this is over and its safe. Love and peace and wonderful memories to their lovely family.

Bill and I were high school classmates at Cathedral H.S. 22 years ago, I retired from the IRS and another attorney and I rented office space in the Glendale Bldg. We hired Bill to help us acquire office furniture. An old stock brokerage firm closed and we decided to purchase used office furniture. In going through the brokerage firm Bill spotted some wires on the top of a file cabinet. He asked the brokerage firm manager if they wanted it. The manager said no, it going in the trash. Several days later we had the most distinctive wall decoration in our building. Other's trash was Bill's trove.
Bill was always a quiet but active supporter of IHM and Cathedral High School alumni activities.
Most importantly, Anne and their children took great care of Bill in a no-nonsense manner which doubtlessly extended his years which he always appreciated and without complaint to others. Bill we will miss you, but please greet us when we move to the other side! Chuck Collet
