Karen just called me last night to let me know this about Bill, we were very saddened. Bill was a very kind and friendly gentleman. I got to know him at the Ashokan seminar in NY where I looked forward to seeing him every year. I then had the pleasure of seeing him at the Mid-America hammer-in in Troy as well. I saw Bill through his Journeyman performance test, but he decided the judging would take longer. I will miss him greatly, a true gentleman and friend.
