Bill's Latest Interactions
Brad and Allen,
I was a member of the class of 1969 with your Mom. In
fact my yearbook photo is just below your Mom's.
Your Mom was a kind and wonderful person.
My sympathies are with you.

Welcome Steve; fond memories of track & field long practice with you. Missed you in DC last weekend
I knew Jerry in choir and on the track team. He was an engaged and energetic guy. He had a wonderful tenor voice and had genuine talent as a athlete, a fact that I think surprised Jerry. I remember him fondly as one of the many diverse people we all had the privilege of attending high school with in Paris.
Bruce was a talented, kind and friendly addition to the class of '69. He sang with Steve Braca and Eric Rolfson and gang and added a lot to our enjoyment (senior year) of live music by our classmates. He was a friend in the choir and a talented voice that would help others. I did not know of Bruce ad his familes' devout Christian faith until reading about his passing. I was comforted that the families' faith, I hoped at the time, would provide some solace.
He and I were going to leave Europe within days of one another to begin our college life. I was in Spain where my parents moved after my ASP graduation. I received a note from another '69 classmate with the OBIT enclosed. It was my first experience in losing a contemporary and one with whom I had built a friendship. It was great to see the honor bestowed on Bruce by the class of '70 in their yearbook.
