There are no words. I only hope that where he has gone, the surf is always up and the coverts always full.

Walk, skip and run Bill. You deserve to have your feet under you a wave to ride and birds as far as you can see.
I have my glass raised and tears on my cheeks.
Dammit, I'm going to miss you.
Vaya con Dios my friend.
Mike

Good news guys! Bill just borrowed a pair of side-lever ejector Grant hammerguns and is about half way through a round of sporting clays. Anyway, that is what I believe and I'm sticking to it.

I figure that he and Lord Ripon have already decided what works best and who's in which peg for the next drive......

“When my time comes I want to exit gracefully. Allow me to tell you here and now that whether I die within the next 24 hours or 24 years, my life has been filled with incredible experiences, a loving family and wonderful friends. All of this is more than I deserve. I am ready to meet my maker whenever that may be. On that bright note, I bid you fond adieu.”
“All Good, today and evermore , Bill”

So very sad! He was a Gentleman and a Scholar. I feel privileged to have been his Guide on his visit to newenglandarms in 1988. We always had a laugh about his "Wheels" leaving mud-tracs on the 'Priceless' Oriental carpets! I have his letters to me in the 'Wise-One's File. Why is it that"The Good-Ones" leave so soon, and the'Rotten Bastards'live on?Bill was a Memorable Character', and is in MY BOOK as One of the Best. David Trevallion.

A true gentleman and inspiration. I never heard Bill utter a cross word or slight toward anyone. Bill was helpful,courteous to a fault and made others feel valued. I will miss him. The courage and selflessness with which he lived his life provides the rest of us with a model.
He was and always will be" all good".
