I just learned from Ann that Bill passed away at 6:15 this evening. He was a good friend and a mentor to me. He will be missed.

My sincerest condolences to the family and all those who he loved and who loved him. He was a wonderful asset to the world and to all us here on the forums. He did a fantastic job on my machine and I will always remember the giant of man he was.

It sounds like a lot of knowledge went with him.

God Bless

Do you think it would be OK to publish his home address so those of us who wish could send a card?

I think I have it here somewhere but not at my finger tips.

If you think that publishing it would not be good could someone please PM me with his house number and zip, I know the rest.

In deed RIP.

Never mind I found it. Hard to believe it was back in July of 2015 when we last corresponded.
