Remembering Bill
My main memory of Bill was his laugh. He laughed easily, and knew how to laugh at himself. Bill was smart, and enjoyed sitting an talking about Whatever. I live in Canada now. I always enjoy visits to my home state of Pennsylvania, but they won't be quite the same without Bill. Dave Perry

So sad to lose one of the nicest guys I've ever known. He was a good friend and colleague, always with a smile and gentle kindness. He always laughed at my dumb jokes, too. He will be sorely missed. I hope Eternity is sweet, Bill.

Bill was one of my favorite co-workers at Channel 10. We were always happy to work together because he was a great editor and we laughed about so many things in his edit room we could miss our spot in the show if we didn’t settle down. He was a lovely person and he will be dearly missed.
