Just by the testaments of all the people here on CF Bill should be very proud of his Dash.
Wendy and I had lunch with Bill at Makers Mark. We had so much fun talking to him and going on the tour. I am so glad he is in my Dash.
He was one of the first Mods I met on line here he pm'ed me many times with awnsers to my question. He will be very missed here and at home. My prayers go out to his family and all his close friends and all the peoples lives he touch here Godspeed IrishMac
