I took care of Bill at Crescent Manor briefly, before I went to college, but worked there in dining after I was an LNA for a good 5 years. He always had great stories to share. I remember him saying he used to bobsled up in Barre, VT. It was always nice to see him sitting outside watching for hawks on a fall day.
