I worked for Northwestern IT for just over 40 years and had the great pleasure of knowing Bill for all of his time with us. Bill had a fantastic sense of humor which extended to some very funny practical jokes. Far too many great stories to tell here. Bill was an all around good guy and I truly miss him and the times we had together.

18 years ago when I first started at northwestern, we got along right away. We would always find something funny to talk about, whether it was about work or referencing some old movie. The Three Stooges was our favorite subject. I guess we were just a couple of idiots who understood each other. I will miss my friend.
