I have such wonderful memories of my fourth grade teacher, Mr. Conway. When I reminisce about Racebrook School, he is always the first person I talk about. He was so kind and patient with all of the students. He was one in a million and I will always be grateful that I was blessed to have such a wonderful teacher. May he rest in peace. I am sending my prayers to his family.

BillConway was a caring, creative and dedicated teacher! Our oldest son is disabled and was transferred from ACES to Mr. Conway´s 3 grade class at Orange Peck Place. Combined speech and mobility issues being a first student in wheel presented challenges for all. Mr Conway was intent on making it a positive experience for all and exceeded! He gave much to him students & colleagues andto thrOrange community.RIP

Bill was a man of incredible talent. In addition to being a gifted artist in paint and drawing he was also a prolific photographer who was able to capture unique vision in both black and white an color photographs. He used his mastery of these art forms to touch many lives. From providing family photos to friends and family to creating beautiful art. Bill was a man of great charity who through decades of generous donations improved the lives of countless people.

Evelyn,
My sincerest condolences for the loss of your Cousin Bill. In a World where few people have someone they can count on, really talk to & take comfort in the knowledge they had someone to fall back on - Bill had you, and was very thankful. You saw to it that your Cousin received outstanding care and that often meant late Night & early Morning phone calls with Yale, Doctors, Whitney Rehab, travel and making important decisions - often with little or no advance notice. When you consider the Age we live in, a time when people will criticize - yet not do anything to help, you saw to it that your Cousin Bill's care and comfort was all that mattered. Bill was extremely fortunate & quite blessed to have had you in his Life.
