Bill and I worked together during the end of the Blencraft era, he was always the Gentleman, thinking of and considerate of all of his staff and others, a thoroughly nice guy

Please accept my sincere condolences at the passing of Bill whom I first met when I was 15. We played many games of basketball together with 4 years at Saints Yellow with whom we never lost a game, and during this period we also played for the Marlborough representative team from where Bill was selected to represent his country. He was humble in achieving such a great honour and to me he was a great friend and mentor on and off the court. He will be sadly missed by all who knew him. Sincerely David Harrison. Noosa, Australia.
