Bill was a great friend. I played on the Senior Little League All-Star team with him in 1976, I also played four years of baseball and football with him at THS. We had a special bond as he was my center when I was the quarterback for our championship football team in 1978. He played both ways (offense & defense) in our big win over Merced in our final game ever. He was the hero of that game. Unfortanately he suffered a severe concussion during that game and I think it affected him in later life. I know at some point he contacted ALS (Lou Gehrig's desease) and I'm assuming that's what he died from, rest in God's peace Billy my great friend!!! John Marson
