What a wonderful man with an equally wonderful spirit! Our prayers continue now for Shirley and the rest of Bill's family.
It's a sad day.
I took this picture of Bill in Dallas just 4 months ago.

This is really sad news.
I have just this minute returned home from a gig, checked in on the forum to hear this sad news.
Bill has been to me, a steel guitar Dad.
I have been in regular contact with him during the last few months.
I will really miss him.
My thoughts are with Shirley and his family at this time..

This is such sad news for all of us but we can find comfort in the Lord and know that he has Bill with him now where no disease can ever hurt him again. My condolences go out to his family. RIP Bill.

This is very sad. I didn't know Bill well, but we met a few times at St. Louis or Dallas. He impressed me as a man of great integrity.
Let us hope and pray that they find a cure for this terrible disease soon. |
