Geri, Paul, Brian and Mark: I am so saddened to hear of Bill's passing. I remember him as one of the most genuine, kind-hearted and good-natured people I have ever known. When my dad was near the end of his own battle with cancer, Bill and Brian joined us at a Rochester Raging Rhinos game. It remains one of my fondest memories of my dad. Later, when my mom was down-sizing and wanted to unload a bunch of stuff on us, Bill unhesitatingly offered to make the 12-hour drive to Central Illinois with me and it in his pickup. Then, as I recall, he took in the Lincoln Museum and a couple of minor league baseball games on the drive home. We will miss him.

I am so sad to hear that Bill has passed away. A random encounter at a volunteer recognition luncheon turned into a great friendship when we discovered our mutual love of baseball. It was an honor to read Bill's stories about local baseball and to do a small part to help him realize his goal of publishing them in a book. I picture him in the stands, watching a game and talking with Joe Dailey, Buster Hagen, Whitey Loos, Jackie Kelley and all of the other ballplayers whose stories he so lovingly researched and shared. My condolences to all of Bill's family. I will miss him.

We are sorry to learn of the passing of your father. We always thought of him as a very kind and gentle person, and one whose professional expertise we relied on completely. We trusted him enough to send him to service the heating and air conditioning needs of our elderly parents in Perry. We considered him a friend as well. We know this is a hard time for all of you, but hope you can be at peace knowing that he is at rest at last. Sincerely, Lorraine and Dan Rybak

Jess & Grandpa spending time outside together. Hiking, biking, baseball games, trips to the park. We could always count on some fresh air fun with him.
