Bill and I only recently became acquainted through our blog writing. In March, I posted a message to him as I hadn't heard from him for awhile. He was always so affirming and I wish I'd known him longer. He is at peace now and his profound faith spoke volumes to me. His fight with ALS is over and his perfect joy is realized now in Heaven with The Lord he loved. I will miss him dearly.
During the planning stage of the 50th, Bill sent me this note:
By the way, thanks for teaching me, in elementary school, all the swear words I would ever need to know later in life! It was a number of years before I fully understood the meaning of several of them.
When I received the notice of Bill's passing, I uttered one of those words.

Very sad to hear about Bill. We are to the stage of life where we hear about a classmate that has left us. Where did the time go? Rest in peace Bill.
