Just found this in that thread: "Bad news today April 8, 2014. My big brother Bill has passed away. I don't know why, must have been a heart attack or stroke. I found him on the floor. He was such a good soul. Very much like my Mom and Dad. He will be sorely missed. He wanted so badly to live. We love you Bill and will see you on the other side. Anyone who would like to contribute to the costs, it would be extremely appreciated. Send what ever you feel like to 239 Oak St. #1 Mtn. view Ca 94041 Thanks Bob Burgess"
Mt. View was Bill's listed location on Tap.
So this thread is to commemorate the legend himself, he may not have been the most knowledgeable MMA fan but he definitely was passionate and his love for the Welterweight division is unmatched by anyone.
RIP Billiam, was good to be an ally.

Unfortunately it looks like it really was him. I don't really know what to say except that this is some genuinely sad news. Keep on dancing, Bill.

All joking aside, you were truly passionate about this sport, a valued contributor to this site, and you seemed a good and respectful person.

Maybe in the next life, Bill. My heart goes out to you.
