I was sorry to hear about Bill passing and remember with fondess our times at Fayette High School, Class of 1956. Bill was a good friend and I admired his career in the medical profession. My thoughts are with you at this difficult time.

Sincerely,

My deepest sympathy to you for your loss. I worked with Dr. Bloom for 11 years at NorthShore Psychiatric Hospital and can say it was always such a pleasure to see him touch so many patient's lives. He was such a gentle and caring man and regarded him with the utmost respect. He will be missed.
