BILL CONSTABLE

Alan,

Thank you for publishing Bill’s obit. He was one of the good guys.

My favorite memory of Bill was sitting with Kathie and him, along with several of our other members, in the bar at the Radisson. Bill was explaining the attributes of various single-malt whiskies and trying to teach us the proper Scottish way to drink it. Suffice it to say Bill was a well-experienced, qualified teacher.

He has been and will be missed.
