I had the privilege of meeting and working with Bill over 37 years at Truck-Lite in the warehouse. I was amazed at how he new virtually every single product part number by heart and even the small hardware items associated with them. Everything that was shipped out the door back then, went through Bill in some way. He was also the most accomplished and stealth practical joker ever. Even if we knew he did it, we could never prove it. Grease on the earpiece of my phone was his specialty. His Christmas tree light strings that he made out of trailer harness wire and marker lights connected in series were always a hit. As a supervisor, people would do anything for him since he gad their respect. I don't ever recall hearing him raise his voice. The success of Truck-Lite in the early days was due in part to Bill. Way too many more memories to share. It was a privilege to know and work with Bill. May he rest in peace.
