I would like to add my condolences to Bill's family. May the family find comfort in the reflections on how Bill touched the lives of so many in this online community. May he rest in peace...

That's sad news. I'll miss him. :(
My sincere condolences to Bills family. Bill was a great guy and personally helped me out on more than one occasion when I got stuck trying to do something in Xara. He would write me personally and was always the first to respond--a true good Samaritan! He will be deeply missed by all of us here on the forum.
Post 51 above has the funeral home's URL and an online guestbook.
I can think of no better, lasting tribute to Bill and his memory than writing a little of your experience with him, just so his sister and mother can see it.
Neither of them are "computer people", and they were fairly unaware of his status on TalkGraphics. Our Administrator called his sister and tried to explain, but try explaining television to someone who has never seen it.
I believe Barbara is going to send hard copy of this thread to them next month.

A true gentleman.
How sad and so young too.

Bill was a true spirit of helpfulness and kindness to everyone here... We will dearly miss Bill. He truly was one of a kind.
Bill you will be sorely missed.
I'm sure you will be helpful wherever you are.
Your spirit lives on!
Sorry to hear this; very sad. Hope his family are OK. His legacy input and support for the forums and elsewhere will remain for future visitors to benefit from.
I am so sad to hear of this. My deepest sympathies go to Bill's family. As Gare mentioned Bill is happy now and at peace with the creator. And as Gary stated Bill was part Native American, as am I. Soquili and I hit it off right away as friends. Soquili is the Cherokee word for horse and Bill told me he got his name because he liked the horses or used to talk to them, something like that. I believe the post is here in the forums somewhere. Soquilis warm heart and kindness touched all of us here, a son, brother, father, a true member of the family.
Cherokee Prayer Blessing
May the Warm Winds of Heaven
Blow softly upon your house.
May the Great Spirit
Bless all who enter there.
May your Mocassins
Make happy tracks
in many snows,
and may the Rainbow
Always touch your shoulder.
