I knew Bill for over ten years as a friend/companion, and words cannot describe the wonderful gentleman that he truly was. I have yet to meet another man with such integrity, compassion, and loyalness Bill had when it came to being a friend. Bill and I loved the opera, fine dining, classic movies, and travel, and he possessed a sense of humor that was absolutely contagious! His thoughtfulness, kindness, and caring and loving ways will be terribly missed. Love, Patricia

Bill will always hold a special place in my heart. Jake and I will remember the good times during the holidays that we spent with him...
He was always up to the task of helping where he could..When my Father was failing in his health Bill came to the store personally and organized whatever financial needs he could help with and organized his entire portfolio which was a tremendous help to our family.

Over this Palm Sunday, we will keep him in our thoughts at Mass and remember that just as Christ has risen,
Bill will be with Him in Paradise.  Love Ginny

Condolences to you, Tara for being a kind & caring friend to Billy during his illness & caring for his personal needs during his final days. I'm sure he appreciated your daily visits to care for him the past couple of years & staying with him until the end. May God bless you for being his personal angel.

I worked with Bill for almost forty years in the Investment business. In 1970 our firm merged into PaineWebber. The merger initially was an operational disaster. Bill was up to the task of fixing the problem. He left Pittsburgh, and spent six months in New York City repairing our operational issues. This saved our clients substanial time and money.
Bill could always be counted on to work hard with dedication and intregrity thoughout his career. He will be missed by his friends in the investment business.
