I learned today that "Snap-on Bill" was in the hospital, terminal with only days left. Were you aware of this?

Yes, Thanks--I was down about two weeks to see him and he looked like#$%. He really didn't want to leave Baja and I understand he got very hostile when they loaded him up for the trip north.

Whan a nice man, always going out of his way to help others.

This morning I was told he was now in a hospice somewhere in L.A. and he only had a short time amoung us.

Far too many of the old timers falling by the way--1st Jimmy Smith, then Dick Harrison, and now Bill. Looks like a couple of more guys will be following him shortly. No, not me!

I honor their need to be away from the rat race and to do their own thing.

Again, Thanks!
