Deepest Sympathy on your loss. I worked with Bill as a proud UAW Member many times. Conscientious & caring he always was cheerful. He had more loyalty to the CASE brand than many of the CASE management I worked with over the years.

My sympathy to your family. I went to high school with Bill, very nice man. I graduated in 1955. He was lots of fun.
