I met Bill on the curling ice at Weston in the early 70's. Working as a junior in real estate at the time, Bill asked me to join him as his assistant at Bovis Corporation (McNamara). For the next 6 years I learned a great deal about acquiring and developing land under Bill's tutelage. Many of the lessons learned working with Bill shaped my career and continue to influence my life. The most important was that of being practical. I am so happy that he lived a long life and that his refinishing skills served him well to the end. May he rest in peace.
