Bill died in January, 1992. He had suffered from Familial Spastic Ataxia which is similar to ALS. He graduated in 1966 from Culver Stockton Collage in Canton, MO, and obtained his Master’s in Guidance and Counseling from the University of Virginia in 1969. He worked in Roanoke County School Systems, worked for a while at Roanoke Collage in their vocational guidance department. Prior to his stopping work he was working for Virginia Tech in their Upward Bound program. Bill is survived by his wife, Thayer whom he married in 1967 and their son, Mitch, whom they adopted in 1973. Bill was an elder in his church. He was a groomsman at my wedding and Charley White’s wedding and we maintained contact with him and attended his funeral. We are missing him and wish he could be with us in October.
