    When I close my eyes I can picture picture Bill as a student at MIT. What an incredable life of accomplishment. Connected again with June and Bill in Shanghai. Then recently at my Sons wedding. The threads of our lives are woven from memories like these. My sincere condolences to Bills loved ones. He was an extraordenary role model.
