Bill died Oct. 9, 2009, in Arizona.
He was born in the Bronx. After graduating from North Plainfield (N.J.) High School, he served in the Navy Air Corps from 1944 to 1946. An English major at Princeton, he was an editor and personnel director of The Daily Princetonian, a member of the Pistol and Outing clubs, and joined Terrace.
Bill worked at CBS television in New York from 1950 to 1959. He then became an account executive for the Kratz Agency, which sold TV advertising time. He was working for McGraw-Hill in Cleveland in 1976 when he moved to Scottsdale, Ariz., where he finally retired as a stockbroker. Sun City was his last residence.
Bill had a witty sense of humor. He always had a helping hand and was a supporter of the needy and animal shelters. His obituary noted that “bright sunny days were his favorite, and he liked to sit outside and watch the Air Force jets flying overhead.”
While working in New York in 1951, he met Barbara Ann McNaughton on Cape Cod and married her a year later. To Barbara; his children, Craig, Brent, and Jill; and his extended family, we send our condolences.
