Dear Tina,

My condolences to you and your family for your loss.

I was truly honored when Bill stepped up to support our cause. I know that the MetroSquash Center that he worked so tirelessly to build will continue to honor him and be part of his legacy of tenacity and generosity.

Sportsmanship: Merriam Webster definition: : fair play, respect for opponents, and gracious behavior in winning or losing.
Twenty years ago I was teamed with Bill in
a Calcutta tennis tournament - Bill was ranked first and was paired with the 64th or worst player - me. Many gifted athletes would have lamented if not groused about having to play with the poorest player. Due to Bill's graciousness, kind instruction and upbeat spirit we advanced two rounds - two rounds better than we should have given my inexperience. . But I walked away hugely impressed by this man I hardly knew, privileged that I had played and learned from the quintessential sportsman and gentleman. My condolences to his family on the loss of the consummate gentleman and true sportsman.

We were so glad to meet Bill last summer during his trip to Italy. A charming man with a wonderful family. He will be sorely missed.

Quando si dice "gentiluomo" , si pensa a qualcuno come Bill , ma -invero- Egli era molto molto di più !
Ti ricorderemo col tuo soave eterno sorriso!
