My deepest sympathies Linda and family. I worked very closely with Bill at GSU and as a young unionist looked up to him and have always considered him my Brother. Bill stood up for all members of GSU he lived and breathed Union and will be sorely missed by myself and many others. We always laughed together. Heaven has gained another angel who I know will be looking down and checking up on us, remember that he is not gone or forgotten he has simply moved into another dimension keeping us a spot for when we are ready to join him,

Dear Linda, Mark and Katherine please accept our condolences , I was very sorry to hear this news . I have fond memories of Uncle Bill at our far too few family gatherings typically at Christmas . He was always ready with an insightful comment to challenge Dad and had a great sense of humor. I still use to this day the various tools I received as presents . I know he will be missed and will be remembering you all in prayer. Love Mike , Betty , Anna Marie, Daniel and David
