  4. I was so shocked to hear of Bill’s passing. We just spoke a couple of weeks ago. So many great memories shared with Bill during our teenage years. He was always the craziest one of the group. Trying to fight an entire opposing football team by himself, handstands on the 1000 Bridge guardrails 150 feet above the water, hitchhiking on the St. Lawrence by swimming out to a buoy in the main shipping channel and catching rides with amazed boaters,… on and on. I’ll miss you, Fitzwilly.
