I'm glad I got to ride with him a few weeks ago. My thoughts and condolences go out to Cori and the rest of the family. I just don't what else to say... Ride in Peace Milktruck. ~Logan |

I've known Bill for a while and first meeting him at the track years ago, he was always nice to me. The community lost a great friend, mentor and guy. RIP. Dru |

| Endorsed Joined: Jan 2008 From: Aloha, OR | Coming off the loss of our brother in Salem three weeks ago this just added to the tradegy and loss for the community as a whole. Bill was something akin to legend and folklore for his ability to get around whatever corner he was in regardless of being solo or 2-up. I know I speak for my brothers and sisters down south when I say that if there is anything we can do we will. For now we will keep Cori in our hearts and minds as we all grieve the loss of icons.
