Bill and I were best friends for almost 40 yrs,after his Army duty. He was a good man,husband,and father,and a true friend. He worked at Mobil Chemical from high school until it closed then worked at the new Walgreens. He came out to our ranch on Sunday and visited for 2 or3 hours and when he left he said his usual "catch you later".Early the next morning at work he collapsed and died at age 61.Totally unexpected. RIP pal.
