bill was a great friend to our family over the years.

when mom lived in gibtown bill and gee gee had dinner a couple nights a week and spoke every day via phone....later by e mail when they both got connected by the internet

he was a real gentleman and wonderful circus artist

bill was a devoted son to his mother. she lived with him in later years and he treated he like a queen...it was so nice to see such humanity and i learned much from this

he supplied wardrobe supplies for almost everyone in the business and always had something good to say

when mom moved up to be close to me we would often invite bill and other friends to social occasions

he became good friends with my wife sherry and we always exchanged holiday cards

when mom gathered her group to go to the circus or ice show bill was always on the A list

he was such a wonderful kind and gentle soul

like everyone who knew bill i was shocked to hear the news

i trust he is sitting next to his showbiz friends on a ring curb cutting up jackpots and looking down on us....

he will be missed by many

god rest his soul
