Thanks, Geary He was doing just fine cognitively, thank god, after his 2010 stroke. But he broke his hip after xmas, then was in rehab, then came home for one week, and got the flu and whatever. He was almost 82, and i think he wore out after almost a decade of fighting. He did everything he wanted to do, and was pleased at where caving in Texas is at these days.
thanks for the kind words katie On Mar 25, 2019, at 2:31 PM, Geary Schindel <gschin...@edwardsaquifer.org<mailto:gschin...@edwardsaquifer.org>> wrote: Katie, I’m very sorry to hear of Bill’s passing. I know he has been in relatively poor health for a while. I was glad to get to meet him for the first time when I first came to Texas about 20 years ago. He was in his element and obviously a professional (I thought he might have had some groundhog in him but they don’t occur in the Hill County.) He made an incredible sustained contribution to caving in the US and Mexico and will be missed by all that new him. Thank you for all you did for him. I know it has been hard these last couple of years.
