Memories & Candles
Bill was such a good friend and companion. We met in college and became instant friends. We shared many of the same outlooks and views on life as engineers. He was an excellent engineer and I enjoyed being in classes with him. As our friendship grew we traveled together on college spring breaks and after that on cruises and trips to the Caribbean. Every time we spent together was enjoyable. I can't remember a bad time together. Later in life

I was so saddened to learn of Bill's passing. I worked with him at GE in the late 80s-early 90s; only for a few years. But he had such a positive impact on me. I will always remember his sense of humor, the fun times at the 99 and how he always dressed so nicely. My condolences to his family and friends. May his memory be for a blessing.

I have known and worked with Bill for nearly 40 years. I can say beyond a shadow of a doubt he was a gentleman, a quiet professional, a bold innovator, and a good friend. I met Bill at RCA back in the day and we were both Husky's. . My (now) wife Nancy was an admin at RCA and also knew Bill. We were both saddened by his passing. I knew he was suffering but he never once complained. He

Very sorry to hear about Bill's passing. I worked with Bill on many video projects here at BAE Systems over the years. He was demanding but polite, and very professional. A sharp dresser, he had a wry sense of humor. Very nice guy all around. He will be missed here.

Bill was always filled with life and vigor, every time I talked to him. He always looked at the bright side of a precarious situation.
