Default Forum Brother Bill Suttie Has Passed Away

In great sadness I received from a private message from Bill's wife Rae today the following message:

George,
Thank you for your kindness, I'm sorry to say that Bill passed away yesterday 11/29. Would you post it on the Forum for the others? I don't know how the site works.
Rae

I only met this gentleman one time. We were to visit the Villages in central Florida. I had messaged Bill having noticed he lived there. In return he passed along his phone number and said to call him when we arrived. He only knew me from this quick pm I sent him and yet offered his phone number to me and true to his word came out to meet us when we arrived. What kindness and trust he showed. I only wished I had the chance to know him better. This brief encounter impressed me greatly especially considering he most likely didn't feel very well at the time. Its a shame there aren't more Bill Sutties in the world............

I will do that AO. I had just met the man. He hardly knew me and yet took the time to meet me to help me with information. His wife is very gracious as well. Will contact her eventually. Want to give her some time first. Thanks so much with the info you presented.
