Just saw the notice of Bill´s death in the latest edition of the Delt magazine. With the exception of my dad and grandfather, he was the most influential person in my life. Beyond the gift of musical experiences-like the New York trip-he taught me how to aspire to be the best I could be in life. I still find myself looking back with fondness and pride at the accomplishments of the SCHS band during the years I had the good fortune to be part of that organization. I confess I wasn´t always the most cooperative student but Bill stuck with me until "the light came on" and for that, I´ll be forever grateful. He really changed my life for the better. I still enjoy playing my horn and that is gift from Bill I´ll always treasure. RIP

Oh no! I just saw the obituary! I am so sorry and so sad. Bill was just the nicest man that there ever was... he sure knew how to make me laugh! I am so sorry for your loss...
