Dakota Foster wrote a sympathy message

“I’m heartbroken to hear of William’s passing. He was a loyal friend, full of wit, warmth, and generosity. We had many laughs — including a time he pulled my manager’s leg and had us all cracking up. He was thoughtful, kind, and someone I could always call just to talk. Our last conversation about life and death will stay with me forever. He will be deeply missed. With love and sympathy, Dakota”
