“Words cannot describe Elaine's and my sadness at hearing of Bill's passing. He was an amazing man. No one expressed more love, respect and generosity to those around him. He taught us all so much about business and life that his influence will survive long after his passing. God bless Bill and Lois. We are lucky to have known them both.”
