I will go along with that. And when he is through he will, no doubt, be riding the long board on a never ending wave.


No doubt that Bill left the world a better place.

Sad news. I really enjoyed our emails and phone conversations. Bill will be terribly missed.

My best to ALL of the Wise family.

I enjoyed several exchanges via email with Bill concerning our mutual love of Boswells. He was a courageous and learned man. I will miss him greatly.

Oh Owleye...

I wasnt ready for you to leave. I still have a ton of questions to ask, and an essay for you to look over for me...

The Lord make His face to shine upon you, and give you Peace.


Friends:

when my wife became ill, he would take the time to just drop me a note, or send a picture. When she died, he started checking up on me, seeing how I was weathering the storm... I am sitting here with tears running down my cheeks...what a true PRINCE of a fellow...he will be missed by many.

He will no doubt be discussing his next hunt with "The Indian", seeing old friends, and getting ready for a long ride on a long board, the REAL "Big Kahuna"

In the world of guns there are tons of folks that think they know, and a few that do. Bill was one that knew. We are diminished.

What a tragedy and a great loss for all of us. For those of you who have not been in this room long enough to have known him, you certainly missed out on the chance of a lifetime to meet the most dignified treasure you could ever meet. Never an unkind word ever came across the screen from him. He only made everyone swell with a ray of light just to see his kind thoughts and words appear in front of us. I remember once he tried to console someone on this board who had lost a close one by saying, "I hope the hole in your heart will be filled with many glorious memories of the one you lost." I have remembered those words now for years. And you can bet I now feel the same way as those words he had once spoken. God Bless you, Bill. I hope, "ALL IS WELL." In heaven.

Shucks,

I thought he had his health troubles whipped.

He's healthy now. The Lord will see to that.

He loved his Vincenzo Bernadelli's. Bet he's shooting a double out of a covey rise right now.

We'll miss you Bill,


Bryan
