It's a sad day. Bill was my mentor as he took a chance on a 21 year old kid from the parts department and molded him into a salesman at John Lee Olds. I tried to mirror his career. He was the best! 40 years later I still remember his valuable lessons. My condolences to his family as we never had a conversation without talking politics and family. He's one in a million. I raise my Scotch glass to you my friend and God Bless.
