I believe he was fighting cancer for many years

Good age, not sure I want to reach 80. Maybe I’ll change my mind by then, since I blink and 5 years goes by.

I believe he was fighting cancer for many yeah

Unfortunately, yes. Prostate cancer and some dementia, close friends and family have known this since 2023, 2024. I believe he had been hospitalized with complications due to pneumonia since this spring.

Just a great guy by all accounts. He will be missed by many.

My brother was sitting in the urologist waiting room a few years ago, Bill started a conversation with my brother, it took my brother a few minutes to realize who he was. Bill gave my brother a pep talk about his prostrate cancer and was genuinely concerned and friendly. He was also still in tremendous shape. RIP
