I used to hang out with Bill at the open mics at Bickford's in Burlington,MA. He loved singing "King Of The Road", and I accompanied him on guitar at Bickford's on a number of occasions. It was always an evening filled with fun and laughs whenever I saw him. And I enjoyed talking with him about vintage automobiles. Those were great times. I miss Bill a lot. Rest in peace, my friend.

I met Bill 10 yrs ago at the Elks. He had the most beautiful voice. I enjoyed playing keno with him and he usually won. He always made me laugh when I was bartending at the American Legion. He lived showing pictures of his adorable grandchildren.
Rest in peace my friend.
