It was obvious Bill had a lot of friends and had touched a lot of people in a positive way.

Three of the SCOF guys delivered a tribute to Bill with anecdotes and stories about some of their adventures with Bill. They talked about how much they enjoyed going to the London Cobra Show with him, which was one of Bill's favorite events.

Our friend Bill had an amazing amount of knowledge about Mustangs, Shelbys, Cobras, and Thunderbirds. His enthusiasm, positive outlook, smile and wit will be sorely missed.

Rest in Peace, my Friend.

Hey Jeff,

Jeff G here. Sorry I didn't get a chance to meet with Wednesday. Maybe we've met along the way. It was Craig, Pat and I that spoke about Bill. I still get up every morning ready to send my pal an update on life...and he's not there. Truly a gent, great human and a brother to me.

Jeff (G)
