Default George William Karadimos, aka Mr. Bill

It is with a great sadness and emptyness in my soul, heart and spirit, that I share Mr. Bill's passing, this morning, February 27, 2015.

R.I.P. My friend. I loved you, my brother, from a different family.

Oh man, that hurt to read...

Bill has always been a first class gentleman and such a positive attribute to this forum. His knowledge, wit, passion and willingness to help will be truly missed.

May God Bless Bill and his family.

This is heartbreaking news. To the Karadimos family we send our condolences. Having lost both my parents in the last several years I know the pain you must feel. Bill was a true gentleman and his wit will be missed here at his "other" family. Bill, we will miss you......

C5 section will never be the same IMO. Its going to be very weird not seeing his threads and posts as well as pictures of his C5. Hopefully the car goes to good hands since he really cared for it.

R.I.P man.

So sorry to hear this. I'm a relative noob on the forum but always enjoyed Mr. Bills posts. Seems like a very stand up guy.
