I am saddened to learn of your news. This is blow to the WSJT-X community. I am saddened to learn of your news. This is blow to the WSJT-X
community.
In the early days of Bill’s involvement with WSJT he often logged into my Macs at home to test his software modifications on a Mac until he got a VM working. He and I had numerous discussions while testing new versions on various Mac OS. He was generous with his time in helping folks with problems either running the codes or attempting to build the software on various platforms. The multitude of emails to the development list is a tribute to his commitment to ensure that the various programs operated flawlessly.

His involvement with the development of WSJT-X code especially with modernising the structure of the whole program has been immense. I will certainly miss his advice. His involvement with the development of WSJT-X code especially with

I only knew Bill through his contributions to the WSJT lists. Those contributions were sharp, radical, and usually encouraging. He was a clearly essential part of a team that is helping Amateur Radio to grow, expand and develop, far beyond what you and I knew when, soldering iron in hand, we first played with radio, all those years ago.

We were also shocked and very sorry to hear of Bill's sudden passing. I never had the pleasure of meeting him in person. Like Bob, he attended the same University and read the same degree. Charlie Suckling, G3WDG/DL3WDG:
We are so grateful for his contributions over many years to WSJT-X. His support for users was first class, and he even joined the EME reflectors to give support to EME users during the roll-out of Q65, despite not being active himself on EME. He was contributing there regularly, and some of his last efforts were to support the use of WSJT-X for Doppler control on CW on the microwave bands.

He was also a very patient and diligent teacher, tutoring and helping those who wished to make small contributions to the project. I am very grateful for the time he spent in such ways. We are so grateful for his contributions over many years to

I had the pleasure of taking to Bill over Skype a few times during the development of 1.7 and later 1.8 to chase down some CAT control gremlins with several radios I happen to own. His patience and intelligence was incredible. Such a huge loss to us all. I had the pleasure of talking to Bill over Skype a few times during
