Marianne tracked me down this afternoon with some news
I am sorry to have to say to you that Bill passed away peacefully at 11:00 on Sunday, in great dignity surrounded by his friends and the staff of the hospital in Montlucon.
I’m not feeling up to doing anything much for the rest of the day.
I am very, very sorry to read this, Eric. My sincere condolences to all who loved him and who are now grieving.
