Bill gave it the good fight. His body had gone through a lot of change and his strength to over come was evident. Reading the responses he will be greatly missed by my South FL Valk brothers and those who knew him. I only wish I had the honor to have met him. RIP and prayer to the family.  Cool

Met him once couldn’t have met a nicer guy. Dealt with him for exhaust tips a couple times before I met him and was the same experience couldn’t ask for a nicer guy. RIP Grumpy.

Truly Sad. I really enjoyed spending time talking to him about motorcycles and his boat motors when I went over there when he would wrench on my Interstate.
Rest in Peace my friend.

We'll all miss Bill, since he was kind of a cornerstone of this group. There's no one here that he didn't touch in a positive way. Rock on Grumpy! We'll miss your presence in so many ways for a long time to come.
