Bill was a wonderful, talented, and dear friend who tragically died of AIDS, I believe in 1994. He was a graduate of Yale University and worked in a number of different jobs, but the most important thing about him in my memory is his kind and loving heart.

Bill possessed one of the best minds I have ever encountered.  It seemd to me that he excelled at all things he ever attempted.  He was a gifted writer.  He had a wacky, endearing sense of humor.  What I remember most about Bill is that he placed first in the nation for French III in the AATF National French Contest in 1970.  His prize was a full scholarship to Alliance Française in Paris that summer.  Bill was a treasure.  I am deeply saddened to find out that he left us so prematurely.  RIP, dear Bill.
