I spent my teenage and early twenty years in Ocean City and Delaware north of the state line on the Ocean, but never knew Bill and never surfed on his part of the beach. It didn't matter, Bill never made me prove my bonafides. He was satisfied that I was a Lindner Daly researcher and a pigeon shooter and researcher of pigeon shooters. Imagine that. What a weird come together of interests. I would kill to have known Bill when we were both in Ocean City in the sixties. I could write books about Ocean City in the sixties, as could Bill. I could write books about pigeons, as could Bill. I met him later in both of our lives and I love him. Bill Murphy
