    So sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. I was one of his golfing buddies in the 80s. I really haven’t seen him much since then. But I remember him as a great guy who had a lot of fun golfing. May Bill
    rest in peace. Daryl Lund

    We have fond memories of fun at Seebs' house on Lawrence Ct before home hockey games. Seebs helped make hockey road trips fun too, when we were members of the Wisconsin Hockey Backers club. Thanks for the memories, with peace and blessings, Benny & junebug

    I worked for Bill when I was a student at UW-Madison from 1976 to 1983. My mom worked for him as well. Bill was a kind and wonderful man, who always had a smile for everyone. I fondly remember how we registered students for classes in the Stock Pavilion (even in the bitter cold January winters) under Bill's guidance. I recently ran into Bill at the UW Hospital, and he was excited about moving to a warmer climate. Bill will truly be missed.

    My friend Bill, may you rest in peace. Condolences to Norma and Nancy. Will always remember our times together at Spring Harbor in the 60's , Playing basketball and hanging out at the beach. When we turned 18, probably spent too much time at Rusty's.
