From Bill Franks:

Just heard about Bill's passing from Ace Earthman. I last saw Bill when he was in Spokane (towards the end of Covid) visiting his mother. I had a difficult time getting details. I contacted the Greek Church in Spokane: Date: 12.20.2024 Hi Bill, Thank you for reaching out to me. I'm sorry to say that Bill Garras passed away in February 2022 of a sudden heart attack. My condolences to you for the loss of your friend. When someone passes in the Orthodox Church, we say, "May his memory be eternal!" I pray that his memory lives on in you and those who loved him. God bless, Fr. Daniel I will miss Bill, we had many interesting conversations. I'm at a loss.
