I'm so sorry to read about Bill's passing. I worked with him at Merck for a few years in the 1990's and we kept in touch for a short time after that. He was a great mentor and I always admired him. His love of the Navy and his family was evident. I'm sorry for your loss and hope the years have brought you some peace.

I want to send my condolences to you and your family, I'm sure his memory will live on in your hearts. I'm sorry I did not hear about his passing at the time. Know that I will pray for you and your family for peace and solace.

Bill, Rest In Peace my friend. We had a lot of fun in high school classes. We shared a lot of laughs together. We knew each other families fairly well . My thoughts and prayers go out to your children, mother and your siblings.
