Will was a good friend for 30 years. When he entered a room, you immediately sensed his presence. When he spied you, you knew that you were about to receive a big hug and a fabulous grin. Then he would quickly negotiate with you and go out and beat you playing golf, nearly every time. I didn't resent paying him money for his golfing prowess. It was worth the price of admission.
I'll miss you, Will, more that you will ever know.
