I had the privilege of working for Bill at Warrick Hospital in the Emergency Department in the early 1990s. It was my first job as a doctor. He was a good man to work for. He was a leader who was totally devoted to the hospital, our patients and the staff. He was a person of integrity and decency. I'm sorry I did not hear of his passing sooner, so I could say farewell.
