Bill was a committed Christian. Bill loved Jesus as much as he loved anything else. So I just want people to know, and I can speak personally from having listened to Bill for the last several years, he loved Christ. He knew that when he died, where he was going, that he was going to Heaven to be with the Lord. Bill was somebody whom everyone loved on both sides, and those in our group, Tony Hall and our group, kind of transcend it. In fact, we had greater loyalty in our group to the individuals in the group than we actually had to our parties. We worked together on many issues, and we are going to miss Bill an awful, awful lot.
