I loved Bill Scott. He was a great boss, co-worker, and friend. Above all, he was authentic. Its such a rare quality. I'll forever regret falling out of touch with him over the recent years. I got the next round Bill.

Bill and I were childhood friends/classmates (and 1967 Trekkies) that grew apart as we got older. I will always remember Bill with a smile on his face. Rest now with God.
