Bill was my German teacher, soccer coach and spoke on behalf for my Eagle Scout award. Later we played in the same adult soccer league and drank lots of beers together. Later on when we saw each other he always asked about my family, my kids and my parents. He was a great person who taught me a lot. RIP Bill! You will be missed.
