Donna Vera from Latta lives on my floor in our apartment building in The Bronx, NYC.
I am from Iowa.
Donna has told me about prominent families from South Carolina, including the Astons of Latta.
She's around 60 years old now and desperate to tell her life story to anyone that will listen.
I am sharing Bill's obituary on X/Twitter.
Go Clemson.

No, really, Go GameCocks!
My dad's older brother was the head of the drama department at USC in Columbia for many, many years.

Peace to you all down there.
