I'm so sad to have learned of Bill's passing. I have many fond memories of Bill and I serving in the Army in Munich Germany in 1958-59. Bill was an inspiration to me in my formative years and somehow passed along his positive attitude which has served me well in the passing years. I miss him so. Here is a picture of Bill & I when we reunited after 64 years.
