Bill was someone I always looked for at our Belmont High reunions, a kindly, friendly guy with a great sense of humor - I don't recall if he ever played the saxophone again after high school but if he did I bet it was a treat we were in school together and I can tell you he isn't just smiling for the camera, he was a happy, funny man. I miss him.
I agree with John. Joan and I always enjoyed chatting with Bill and Mary Ruth whenever the class got together.
It is also worth mentioning that the newsletter and the website that Bill created and maintained was an amazing gift to our Class. He was, indeed, a special person and will be missed by us all.
