I can not express in words how much Bill meant to me. I knew him in High School and College-for over 40 yrs.We stayed in touch through everything, marriages, divorces, accomplishments, failure-you name it we talked about it. Bill and I talked on a weekly basis about whatever was happening in our lives.He was a true friend in the purest sense. He was one in a million and I valued him and his friendship throughout the years.
