Richard H Meador wrote a sympathy message

“You could tell Bill was a ham radio operator. Having met him only a few times, I enjoyed our conversations and he invited me to his "shack" which I never got around to visit. So very sorry and wish all the best to his family and friends. As Bill would say on the radio, "73." With Sincere Sympathy, Richard Meador - KO4OP”

“Bill has been a good and trusted friend over the past few years. His mentorship has taught me much about life and different perspectives. He was always there to help me in the amateur radio hobby we shared. He was always moving forward and planning for tomorrow. I know that the Lord has welcomed his son and our brother. He will be greatly missed. My prayers are with the family. Guy Carlsen (K4CNF)”
