    Again, Liz, so sorry for this news. Posted a note on Legacy when I was notified of Bill's passing on facebook and again by Linda Palmer Sharier, my first cousin on Hwy SR 16 east of West Lafayette. Hope you and the family are doing well. My deepest sympathies and condolences. Bill will be missed by his family, friends, work associates at his many locations there in the area, and the legions of the Air Force.
