RIP Wyldbil

I am SO sorry to hear this news. I was talking with (I think Bro Chris) two or three days ago and mentioned that I hadn't seen Bil around in a few weeks-this is horrible-my deepest condolences go out to you Sarah and all who knew him. I didn't know him well, but we did communicate via email, Myspace, etc. A truly sad day for the HFC as well-he was one of the guys who always remained positive and he'll be greatly missed.

 
I'm saddened by this as well. Particularly so, since I didn't get to meet him in person. When I opened a myspace page briefly to see how it was done, and if I could transfer music, etc., and get video to work (just a dummy page), I wasn't even done with the thing and I see a message from him with words of encouragement . . . So I kept it for a month or so -- anyway, a genuinely nice man that I sure would have liked to have met in person.

Peace be with him and you.

 
This sucks. I really can't add anything that hasn't been said already. Absolutelly horrible.

 
I don't know what to say. I was wondering why I hadn't seen him post of late.

For years his catch phrase whenever he sensed some BS being thrown about was "Is that baloney I smell frying?". He will be missed here for sure.

My condolences to you and the family.

 
I first saw this post when I was home for a 1/2hour lunch break and didn't have time for anything but a quick note. I cannot begin to imagine how hard this holiday season has been for you. Is there a mailing address where a card could be sent? I know its a terribly hollow token but I, and probably alot of guys here, would like to pay our respects in some way.

 
I just got home from a great Christmas with family, and the news has hit me hard. I am crying, and I am not ashamed at all. His loss is a big loss to all of us.

Bil was a fantastic guy, lots of fun. He ALWAYS had a funny story or a joke. He adored his Hamers, and was very proud to play pink guitars! His commitment to the company and the HFC was unwavering. To know him was to love him.

I will miss him, and my condolences to the family. I have lost a great friend, but am glad that I got to know him. I am better off because of Bil's friendship.

 
Man, I just checked the board and saw this.

Please accept my condolences. My thoughts will be with you.

 
Thank you again for taking the time to even think of us and our relatively small pain. I had the pleasure of speaking with Bil a number of tiimes and wish I had more photos of our get-together. I have a few though and I will be posting them. He was a huge encouragement to my hot sauce experiments.

For whatever it is worth, I found Bil to be one of the most decent people I have met. I saw the phrase "Genuinley nice man" used and this is how I feel as well. I think this was one of the great accomplishments of his life and he has my continuing admiration for it.

So sorry for your loss, Bill was a cool guy and quite a character. I never had the chance to meet him, but chatted on Myspace and here often.

RIP Bill, you will be missed.

thanks sarah for sharing this terribly sad news. some members here were fortunate to have known/met bill, and others like me know only his virtual presence. the forum will be a quieter place without his lunacy, our loss pales in comparison to yours. we hope his spirit and goodness lives on with you.

 
I can't say anything that has not already been said.... Bil was a good guy and I enjoyed reading his posts and our occasional Myspace messages.... Heaven just got another good one...

Cheers to you Bil!

 
Sarah, I hope all of the HFC goodwill helps you in your time of loss. Bil was definitely one of the good guys around here, and he will be missed.
