Bill popped in my mind this evening and for some reason, I googled him. It was with great sadness to hear of his Recent passing. Bill was my professor at CCAC. During that time, we built a strong bond in and out of the classroom. We spent our off days golfing as he shared his stories of family, friends, the Marines and being a state trooper. I think back and had to let his family know what a great person Bill was and truly had a great impact on my life at such a young age. My deepest sympathy!
