Very sorry to hear Bill has passed. First met him 1966, We unloaded a watermelon truck for Coast Citrus produce at the 5th st. market. We met again at Ft. Polk La. June 1967. Then again when our Daughters attended "Our Lady of Grace" school. He was a good guy, rip.

When Bill was on the city council he was "small town" accessible. Don't remember if his phone number was listed in the phone book but somehow I got it. Whenever I called asking about issues in West Sacramento he made time and talked to me. He was a "salt of the earth" personality.. uncomplicated, told it like it was, and a joy to speak with. W Sac lost a true public servant
