Bill was/has been a friend of our family over 40 years. He was a fine photographer and a warm human being.
Bill and my father, the late Barry Edmonds were co-instructors on the NPPA'S Flying short course in the 1970s.
Possibly, Bill viewed death as a temporary interuption. I say that because in a conversation with him last year, after discussing a statement in the scriptures that "there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous" Bill exclaimed, "... sounds like most of us will get a second chance..". A positive thought.
Until then, he will be missed!

I was unable to attend Bill's services, but he remains in my best thoughts. He was a great photographer, and an even better human being and colleague..
