My thoughts are with the Sommers family. Although it's been nearly thirty years, I have very fond memories of visiting Bill at his office in Government Center while Anne and I were in school in Boston. I treasured the time spent with him and Joan at their home, too. Bill was incredibly fascinating to me as a young man. Literate, well traveled, a builder - a Renaissance man.

Dear Dad,
I can't believe it's been 3 years since we said goodbye. You are always with me.
You touched so many lives, and your influence is still felt.
You were an incredibly complicated person and I miss you every day.
