    Rip Bill, wow what a life you had 100 + years.

    Renewing your driver’s license at 100 is as amazing as many other parts of your life.

    I think Bill was someone I would have liked to know.

    A friend of mine was in the diesel engine program at College of the Redwoods in Eureka,Ca when Bill had the students help construct his GMC powered streamliner. He was able to go to Bonneville as part of the team. What an experience. I have heard that the streamliner is in a shed in Eureka.
