William Hurt Obituary
06/21/1967 - 07/29/2021
San Francisco
For a second you were flying
Like you always wanted to
Now you'll fly forever
In skies of azure blue
We'll see your smile in every ray
Of sunshine after rain
And hear the echo of your laughter
Over all the pain
The world's a little quieter now
The colors have lost their hue
The birds are singing softly
And our hearts are missing you
Each time we see a little cloud
Or a rainbow soaring high
We'll think of you and gently
Wipe a tear from our eye.
Bill was killed in a hit and run accident on Treasure Island, Ca. He was a proud San Francisco native who was raised in Brisbane, Ca and was a Carpenter by trade.

Always into conspiracy theories and was a very cool dude, good man. I was with him the day he passed and I was the last person to ever have a conversation with William, he liked being called Will Hurt and says if he punches, it "will hurt". Love the man, I can´t ever forget about what happened that day.
