Bill is a very unique individual whose dedicated work on the site was untiring. It was a full time job he loves. After meeting Bill at Saratoga I became aware even more so just how caring a person he was. Obviously not feeling well he continued to march as best he could. The last day he didn't feel up to going to the track and I cashed 4 nice tickets for him.
My wife is fond of saying that in this world there are givers and takers , Bill was giver. A rather tall gentleman whose appearance was the opposite of his true soul and bearing. I greatly appreciated the time we spent together at Saratoga, while short on time it was of the highest quality of which I shall forever cherish. Prayers coming your way in this greatest time of need Bill. Mitch44 |

I also met Bill at Saratoga. In 2017. And I would say he has been one of the nicest people I have ever met.
The diseases you are having to deal with are amongst the toughest out there Bill. But they can be managed through treatment. And sometimes they can be beat. My mother in law at the age of 76 actually beat Pancreatic cancer. Don’t despair. Take each day as it comes and stay as positive as you can for as much as you can. Modern medicine is truly amazing. Be well, Mike (Pook) |

Thoughts and prayers for Bill and his family.
Bill is a Sartin ICON. His never-ending teaching and helping others with the methodology would make the Doc very proud indeed! Bill has the spirit of the Doc. A personal thank you for the help he gave me over the years. |
