He was a dedicated, upstanding individual who always had a positive attitude - no matter what. I'll never forget stepping off the ERJ in CVG on the eve of the demise of DL's A concourse "slaughter" of 800+ comair ramp employees and finding Bill in the smoking room. "Bill, what are u gonna do now?" His response- " got on at the other end of the field with DHL- pay is not great, but I'm happy- more time with the family and I still have a job here at the airport". God bless u, RIP....
