I am posting these paraphrased comments from John Lewis about his friendship with Bill that he provided in his profile.  They are most certainly a fitting tribute.

"Bill was the first person I met when I moved to Mt. Lebanon and he was my best friend.

After graduation from Mt. Lebanon, I attended the University of South Carolina on a football scholarship. Besides football they wanted me to go to class - I never missed practice.

After working for a year drilling dynamite holes on a side of a mountain, Bill came to my home to get me to go with him to school in New Mexico. He had it all arranged and I did not even know it.  Admitted, football scholarship,and first semester freshman."

As I said before, Bill was my best friend for life and we were best friends until he left me in 2006."

John Lewis
