I first met Bill in 1980 when I started working at the Robinson Nuclear Plant. Bill was a leader and mentor for us Health Physic technicians. I will tell you that Bill mentored many people during his years in Nuclear Power and he never really asked for anything in return, except for us to do our job and to do it well. I’m very thankful that he was there for me. I didn’t ever meet any of his family, but my sincere condolences go out to his entire family. Bill thanks for the memories and the knowledge you transferred to me. Rest in Peace my Friend.
God Bless
Jimmy Floyd

Charlotte Anne, Jim and Allen, Frank and I have been out of town and I just heard about Bill today. We had such fun through the years at school and at church. He also came by the house years ago and helped us out with a stay dog that had taken residence at Mother’s house. He was so good at assuring Mother that the dog would be well taken care of. He was born on the 27th of May and I followed the next day on the 28th of May. My thoughts are with all of you.
