Susie, I was so saddened to hear of Bill's death. He was truly one of the nicest men I've ever known and was a joy to work with all those years in the Tin Mill. Though I hadn't seen either of you for many years, you're both fondly remembered. Reconnecting with Bill on Facebook allowed me to catch up with him, and to enjoy his wonderful artwork. I'm holding both you and Boyd close in my heart. May all the memories you have warm you and comfort you. Jackie
