Bill ( I will always think of him as cousin Billy) was the older cousin that his other cousins would look up to when we were growing up. I was never much of a fisherman but the times I went were with him. I remember his wedding reception which was the first such event that I ever attended. He was interested in a wide variety of things and was a font of esoteric information. From the old Pittsburgh Playhouse in Oakland, hunting, fishing, and camping, start up home businesses, his beloved beagle, to being a disc jockey and more he always had something going on to talk about. He was a caring husband to his dear wife Margie. I will always remember his living room floor covered in beagle toys and the time he showed me what he in humor called the warehouse and loading dock for a home business he had ( his garage and the garage door). The first time he visited the home we live in now he quickly pointed out to us that we had a walnut tree and a chestnut tree on the edge of our property, a fact that we were previously oblivious to, and that we were letting this great resource go to waste. Ever since then we have been gathering this bounty and we still think of him whenever we do that. He was a genuinely wonderful person. I am sure that he is now joyfully reunited with his dear Margie.
