Our deepest and most sincere condolences for the loss of your Dad. I worked with Bill from 1972 until his retirement. He was a fine co-worker and friend who was well liked and respected by all. He was part of our special Piedmont family here in AVL. The day he shook hands and said his goodbyes was bittersweet in that he would really be missed but we understood that now he could speed more time with his family and enjoy other interest. God bless you Gail, Arlen and Kelly.
I worked with Bill at AVL. Super nice guy and great to work with. My nickname is ‘Judge’. I started my career with Piedmont in 1980.I just found out about your family’s loss. I am sorry to hear about Bill’s passing. Prayers for God’s Comforting Touch…..
My deepest sympathy for the family…I worked with Bill in the late 80’s after I was transferred from Tri-Cities with USAir. He was a great man to work along side.
Arlen, Gail, and Kelly – I am so sorry for the loss of your dad. I worked with Arlen and Bill at the Asheville Airport and just loved your family! Bill was so special and made us all smile and laugh everyday at work. He was such a special person and would do anything for anyone. I know he will be missed greatly. I am also sorry to hear that Robin is no longer with us. I did not know this and I am so, so sorry. My thoughts and prayers are with each of you. God Bless you!
