  2. I have not had a conversation with Bill In about 40 years but the memories I have of him and his friendship have always stayed with me.
    We meet when I was a young man at George DB Bonbright in downtown Rochester. Bill had an infectious personality and a great sense of humor.
    Even when he lost his hearing Bill took it in stride and worked through it.
    My condolences to the Family.
    Bill you will be missed!
