Mark Simpson wrote a sympathy message

“He was thorough,complete in all he did including living every day and getting things done. As he aged and became less mobile he ached from not getting out and around as he did all of his life. I wish there was more I could have done to help him feel his voids and his later days. I'm a better man for knowing that men like him were created and made available to us for invaluable life lessons.”

Mark Simpson wrote a sympathy message

“"Red", as Bill was known as, was a wonderful mentor to me. He took me under his wings as I service his aircraft at linden airport, where he was an instructor and a resident pilot. There's a lot to learn and absorb from a man that was so full of talents and skills. Crafty in many ways he led by example. He had a love of music of The Dorsey brothers that were from his hometown in Pennsylvania. Neil diamond " Sweet Caroline" was one of his favorite songs that we listen to many times.”
