To Bills´ family-I´m so sorry to hear of Bills passing. I worked for him as his secretary in the Davenport schools. He was a gentle, kind man. Amoung the many memories, one stands out- the day the New York towers fell-he pulled a tv into the office and we stood in silence as that tragedy unfolded. His compassion and strength will forever be his legacy.
