I listened to one of his broadcast a couple days ago. I sure miss those videos each week. He gave me so much encouragement. |

Im still not over William's passing. I will miss William...He was my friend for 47 years. We had some great times together picking our Steel Guitars. I miss going to William's house to work on his guitar...If he had a problem with his guitar...He would always call me...and if he ordered new parts...He would always order some extra for me. He was A great friend. My most deepest and sincere condolences to Williams family. RIP William Im gonna miss you. |
Bill,
William had a lot of respect for you. He spoke highly of you, and you know William didn't pass out compliments too easily. He told me years ago what a good player you are, and upon seeing/hearing some of your work, I agree. He helped me learn a bunch of licks. He was one of a kind. I miss him and his sense of humor.
William was a pioneer in using online video to teach people to play. I know he struggled with getting everything to work in the beginning, before it was as easy to do as it is now. But, he figured it out.
