How do you coherently explain pure admiration? Bill was the most influential person in my personal and professional life. Words cannot fully express the nature of how I saw Bill. He was a pillar of professionalism, whit, smarts and a truly caring person. Maybe not the humblest, but that right was earned. Just as all of his friends would explain, to me, he was it. He was Bill and Bill was it. In 9 years, there wasn’t a day that went by where I didn’t talk, text or think about something Bill told or taught me. When I hear others speak about their mentor I think of Bill and wonder if those people see their mentor in the same light I saw and see Bill. From him teaching me the “double Windsor” with the dimple, explaining 2/10 Net 30, reminding me to never go naked on a short position and trying to school me on how my music is not music I will forever deeply miss my friend Bill. He was more than a friend and a mentor; he was a role model. I love and will miss you deeply Bill. Thank you for being so kind to me always. You’re awesome.

I have known Bill since the late 1960s, through junior high, high school, and have remained friends since we both went away to college. He has been a great friend, always upbeat, and I will miss the regular dinners that he, Jeff Dulin and I shared for almost the last 10 years. And I will miss the phone calls, and our discussions of history, politics, and stories of the people of our youth. Deepest sympathies to his family, his community of friends and co-workers, on everyone’s loss. He was one of a kind!

My condolences to Bill’s family, including his sister Sari, niece Maddie and close two cousins Chuck and Wendy. I knew Bill for nearly 40 years. I worked for Bill as a sales rep, then as a fellow sales manager along side him and later directly for him. Most importantly, I treasured Bill as one of my longest and closest friends. He was a great mentor and motivator to me over my career. However the best part was Bill was a longtime loyal and close friend. It is tragic to lose you this early in life my good friend. There is not enough words to express how much I will miss you. Finally, I will sorely miss our daily phone conversations about sports, politics, movies, music and life in general. Rest in peace good buddy!

I have known Bill for 40 years having met him through Karyn. The thing that stood out to me about Bill was that he was always such kind and giving person. He went above and beyond to be generous and helpful to those he cared about. I know he will be greatly missed by so many especially his sister Sari who he adored and spoke so fondly of. My deepest condolences to Bill’s family, loved ones and friends.
