Default George William Karadimos, aka Mr. Bill

Mr. Bill disliked his name George, and refused to answer to it! So..he was always a 'Bill', and here on the forum, he was Mr. Bill.

This morning, 27 February, 2015, after 45 years, I lost the closest friend I ever had. The tears are still flowing.

R.I.P., My brother from a different family tree. Know that you will forever, be in my heart and my soul.

Such a massive loss for the forum today. He was the heartbeat of the C5 section. R.I.P.

Mr. Bill was a wealth of knowledge and he helped me get my car back up and running when I needed it the most (tracking down some strange gremlin.) He was always helpful and straight forward. He will be missed here. I know I speak not only for myself but all the member at Texas Racing that knew him as well.

RIP Brotha!

RIP Mr. Bill. You will be missed by many. I enjoyed your posts and pictures. I will miss the Frank Zappa avatars. It will be different here for sure.

There have been too many losses lately. I just lost my Uncle on Christmas morning. He was a Corvette Forum member as well and a long time Corvette and car enthusiast and the reason for my Corvette passion. Hopefully the two of them get together.

Way, way late to see this section and say this here, but it is still needed. I am sorry for your family and for your passing. I still see your Birthday on FB. I knew of your passing, just not this section of the forum. You helped me many times.

God Rest.

Rick
