Mr. Jean,
I've never had the pleasure of meeting you or Bill, but I remember reading your posts about doing things together and thinking how lucky you both were to have each other as friends. As I grow older, I've come to the realization that good friends are one of the most important things in life. They are few-and-far-between. I lost two good friends last year. It's obvious by all of the comments that Bill was a good man and well-respected on this forum. There will be a void here that will never be replaced. Cherish your memories of your times together and he will live forever in your heart. You both were so blessed to be in each others lives. I'm sorry for your loss.

Very impressive photo!
Just one example of the superior photography that we all had a chance to experience through Bills' camera and his vision.
I recall his disappointment when the forum decided to omit Bills' annual slideshow presentations. This link, https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...w-is-here.html , has the four annual slideshow presentations that he put together for our pleasure. They are all worth the effort of saving!
So many have expressed their sympathy and well wishes to Bills' family and I echo all the sentiments and repeat that Bill had a profound effect on all members, through his photos and his comments.
A stand-up gentleman! He will be remembered!

A terrible lost for his family and our C5 family. I always enjoyed his post. CF is so much more than just another forum, Mr. Bill will be remembered.

I wonder if it's possible for Mr Jean or someone to post Mr. Bill's obituary here for the rest of us. I would like to read some of the details of Bill's life. This is a big loss for the C5 Forum. Thanks

Been away from the Forum for a while and was shocked to see this post!! I have considered Mr. Bill a good online friend for years. So say I'm sad would be an understatement.
He has been a valuable contributor on technical issues, advice for anyone,,and his photography was second to none. Then there was his sense of humor that will be sorely missed!! Farewell ol buddy. Wish I had the chance to meet you in person,,,,Rest In Peace!!!
