Hello, everyone. I am Sarah, wyldbil's wife.

I am sorry to tell you that wyldbil passed away suddenly on December 8. He suffered a massive heart attack while at work and the paramedics and doctors were not able to revive him.

He was 45 and we would have celebrated our 15th wedding anniversary this coming Thursday. (Dec. 28).

I'm keeping his personal email and his myspace pages going for awhile to help get the word out...he had so many friends and I'm just not sure who's heard and who hasn't. So, if any of you need to contact me, please feel free to use either of those methods.

Bil was a great guitar player and an even better person. He was passionate about Hamer guitars and I know he enjoyed all the camaraderie on this board. He will be missed.

There were a couple of nice articles in the local press if anyone would like to read them:

Maryville Daily Times

MetroPulse

To steal a line from my husband, "Thank you...and good night!"

Sarah

 
Wow this is a total shock!!!

I'm so sorry to hear this, I never met Bil but wondered why I didn't see him posting lately.

My condolences go out to you and your families.

Wow! That's terrible news-I was looking forward to meeting him here in Vegas in a few months.

My condolences-he'll be missed.

 
Sarah,

My deepest condolences to you and your family. This is both incredibly shocking and very sad. I knew Bill only thru this message board, but feel a sense of loss nonetheless. I hope your 15 years of great memories help fill the void of his loss!

My sincere condolences to all his family. His humor, passion and smarts will be missed. Damn.

peace, Bil

 
wow, this is a hard blow for the HFC. i met bil once but we talked via this forum many times. my deepest condolences.

 
I too am floored by this news. What a great guy and his tunes were something special. We came together by, out of all things, The Gilmore Girls. I never met Bil personally but I can tell you I miss him already.

Love and peace to you.

Wild Bill was very cool and I always enjoyed his posts ... I was looking forward to meeting him one day.

RIP Bill

 
Terrible and shocking news. Bill was a great person, he will be missed. The good ones are always taken away too soon. Rest in peace, Bill.

 
I'm in shock here.

First off, Sarah thanks for letting the HFC know that this has happened. I

can only say that you and Wyldbil's family have my most heartfelt condolences.

45 is a young man. I'll be 45 next June. Wyldbil was / is a very colorful

character at this web-site. He'll be missed by all of us. /emoticons/default_cool.png

I hope you don't mind that I post a couple of pics of our fallen friend.

The Archangel Gabriel to Saint Peter: "Dude! Did you you see who we've added to the lineup tonight!?"

SP: "No. Who?"

AG: "James Brown and Wyldbil!!!!"

SP: "Sigh....that's heavenly!"

Rock on Broseph! You'll not soon be replaced in our hearts.

This is sad news for all of us. Wyldbil has been a part of our "HFC family" for years. He and I did a trade once through the mail. I, and many others, will miss him. Thank you for letting us know.
