Our condolences to all of Bill's family - Bill was a good neighbor of ours for many years here on Armlin Hill. Sometimes he would get our mail in his mailbox so he'd walk down and hand deliver it to us to make sure we got it! Other times his dog would get loose and he'd come wandering out of the woods saying "have you seen my dog"? Anytime he'd stop to say hi, he left us with a smile. He was a special man and we will miss him.
