Hello Bruce:

You wrote an outstanding message about Bill. Thanks. I was fortunate in that Bill was the sort of guy with whom I could always be my curmudgingly self. Yes, he and I had many conversations that were not fit to be heard by an ''outsider.'' We both knew that what we said to each other at the OMA meetings stayed at the OMA meetings.

Now, I hasten to add that we had many conversations that were intellectually stimulating. Yes, he was one smart cookie and could see matters that ordinary folks would not, or could not, see. .

I will miss him. He and I often discussed the trials that would come with advancing age. Little did I know that the end for him would come so soon. I say again, I will miss him. 

UMUC has lost a most distinguished professor. He could hold forth with certainty on many subjects. You would be a lucky student, indeed, to be in one of his classes. 

So, I say to Bill, RIP. Your legacy created in life, as well as at UMUC, will last for years to come. We should all be so lucky. 

BTW, we often discussed his ownership of Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) stock. The stock was up several dollars a share on Friday. Hmm!
