Dear Ginny and family,
Bill held a special place in my heart for many years.  When Paul was ill, Bill transported him in Rockaways' ambulance from Hackensack Hospital directly to Kessler Institute, after his stroke. He also took him to St. Clare's on occasion once he returned home.  He was always polite, considerate and supportive, something I desperately needed back then.  I'll never forget his kindness.....and to you Ginny, my deepest sympathy for your loss. God Bless .

"I never met bill or heard of him before. having read about his extraordinary contributions and being my super senior at CARE is enough to connect with him. I extend my sincere respect and regards to bill's family and friends"

Bill Cousins was one of the most remarkable people I ever met.  He had the gift of inspiring happiness and well-being by his very presence.  Bill devoted his life to helping the world's less fortunate, spending years in the sub-continent and Iran with the American Friends Service Committee, CARE, Unicef, the Peace Corps, etc.  The world is a better place because he passed this way.  He will be deeply missed. RIP.
