I am so sorry to hear of Bill's passing. He was such a great guy and will be truly missed. I feel badly that we lost touch these last couple years and will cherish my memories of the last time I visited and had dinner with him.
All of us at O.Keller Tool liked Bill and his warm smile and cheery attitude. It was a privilege to have known him.
