I am deeply sorry for your loss. I just saw this today. He was the first person to persist with me to get me to open up and trust people again. He will be sadly missed.

I worked with Bill for years at Dacro. He was a first class guy. When people asked him how he spelled his last name, he used to say “just like the razor, and just as sharp”. He was a hard worker and genuine in his character. I learned a lot from him.
My sincerest condolences to the family.
