I didnt have a long term knowledge of Bill and only met him on one occasion.

He was great with/to both me and my father, our first NHRA sanctioned event with the Drag Pak.

He made an effort to handle our provisional liscences with our fistfulls and garbage bag transported paperwork, timeslips and medical. crinkled and in disorder.

He made an effort to help us and was truly kind, to both myself and my Father, my father even made comment on several occasions about how well he treated him the 1/2 hr or so they spent crouched in the trailer sorting the mess we had brought him.

I dont know of any other perceptions, I didnt have dealings with him but on one occasion, so for me no others matter, but Id like to thank him for his help, kindness and assistance in getting us set to run at Atlanta , and Id like to apologize for the 13 quarts of Royal Purple 10w we left on his starting line, as well as assorted bits of engine, I was looking for a mop I truly was...........

Enjoy the Retirment.......

If anyone knows how long he will remain at Div 2 , I have a gift Id like to send him for his retirment, something to remeber our gratitude.

A piece of that very engine left on the track that day......
