Condolence From: Tim Whalen
Condolence: I met Bill for the first time back in 1987. I was a very young and green engineer and he was a well respected highly sought after senior engineer. At first I was intimidated but he took the time to answer my questions and he treated me as a peer. It was a great first impression of the man and for the next 33 years he never disappointed me. Bill lived by the old IBM mantra 'Respect for the Individual'. I was able to know Bill out side of work as well and really valued his opinions and friendship. I will miss you Bill.

Condolence: I was so sorry to hear of Bill's passing. He was a such a wonderful person and great to talk with about a myriad of topics.
I recall first meeting Bill over 25 years ago. He had come into a lab to help debug a problem. He soon suspected that the digital multimeter we were using was giving us an unreliable measurement. He returned with an old analog ammeter that helped us quickly get to the root of the problem, all the while teaching me about the internals of the two devices and the phenomenon that made the DMM unreliable in this case.
I've long forgotten the technical details, but I will always remember his incredible intellect, patient tutelage and unfailing kindness; he will be greatly missed.

Condolence: I had the pleasure of working with Mr. Bill a short time before his retirement but it was enough to know that he was a very kind man. I could always hear him coming down the hall to get his coffee in the morning. He would always stop at my office to ask how I was doing and would discuss current news or what was going on with him. I'm sad to hear of his passing and extend my deepest condolences to your family.

Condolence From: Rob Brown
Condolence: I was fortunate to have Bill as a coworker and friend for 30 years. When he was not educating me with power equations and helping my program team solve an issue, we were discussing everything from technology to politics to 2A and precious metals. Bill was always there for anyone who needed advice or a hand with something at their home. He will be missed greatly. Please accept my heartfelt condolences and prayers for peace and comfort for the family.
