I worked (and debated, politically) with Bill from 1970 until I last saw him (at Mario's in Westport) several years ago. He was universally liked and a very giving person. I will miss him.

To the Koerner Family:
What a beautiful difference one single life made. We will always remember. So much has changed, but so much will always be...
May you find strength in your faith, comfort in God's love, and peace in knowing your friends are praying for you.

I am so saddened to learn of Bill's death. He had such a positive impact on the lives of so many and provided such wonderful opportunities for us! I was privileged to know Bill through the West End Youth Center when I attended Black Rock School. I spent a summer at a beautiful summer camp in Colorado and traveled across country in a van with Bill and Karen Bruner along with several other young people from the west end of Bridgeport. I regret that I was not able to see him as that was almost 40 years ago and I have Bill and Karen to thank for inspiring me to pursue my dreams and always reach for the top!
My thoughts and prayers are with you,

It is so difficult to accept Bill's life ending so tragically. He was filled with so much "living" and had so much travel to do yet. He lived well and he lived fully. He will be missed by many including us. Bill made things and Dun & Bradstreet "hop" a bit - he was always in there with a joke or two...

Bill and I worked together at D&B in the "olden days." He was always warm, friendly, and dedicated to doing a good job. In a sometimes-tense techie environment, Bill's smiles always helped us to relax and remember what life was supposed to be about.
