Bill's Birthday

Today would have been Wellington "Bill" Wilson's 67th birthday. (Today would have been my mom's 88th birhday, too.)

Sadly, Bill passed away from complications of leukemia last summer. We had been friends since junior high school in Hawthorne, California.

We last got together two years ago at his home in Buhl, Idaho. He was a long-haul trucker and had stopped by the Flying J down the hill from me on several occasions.

We were at the Wells (Nevada) Fun Run car rally in July 2018 when my "little" coronary issue struck. 

After leaving Bill's in July 2019, Mitch Geriminsky and I pulled a joke on him while we were in Jackson, Wyoming. 

Below, are two videos of the joke. The second one was his reaction.

 


 So, on the occasion of Bill's birthday, a toast to his memory is raised!
