I don't have much more to say, but I did want to finish what I wrote earlier in the week. Marc, thanks for posting your talk. I really wished I could have been there for the live version. I hear you did a great job. Bill would have been proud.
My heart has definitely been full this week while I've been reflecting on the impact Bill had on my life and the lives of everyone else. Here are a few things I don't think I will ever forget:
1. Don't Assume (those who will there will never forget it)
2. The famous fall on the ball that Tyson mentioned earlier.
3. Color challenged people really do pick ugly jerseys (remember those tiger stripped things we had to wear one summer?)
4. The butt chewing under the tree at Roy's field.
5. The afore mentioned Bear Hugs.
6. The opportunity he gave me to play with the "older" team in a scrimmage against Weber State's Club team. One of the biggest confidence boosters I've ever had.
7. Last of all, those DANG hienz 57s (isn't that what they were called) he'd make us run to get into shape!
Bill, you are a great man that has left an unforgettable legacy. Thanks for all the memories, all the hugs, and for all the tears that we shed together. May we all do our best to follow your example. May God's peace be with you and your family at this time.
