I first met Bill while he was wandering the aisles at a hamfest here in Albuquerque when I was a youngster and new to the hobby. I've enjoyed the energy he put into keeping hams informed via Newsline, and have been honored to give back to his Newsline Young Ham of the Year Award program since being asked by him to sit on its judging panel well over a decade ago. An incredible man, ham, and one of amateur radios' too few giants who woke up every day to make the hobby better for everyone, especially its legacy -- youth. 73, Brian N5ZGT
