Bill’s daily routine involved walking through town stopping at the harbor, picking up a cup of coffee at Hill’s Chevron, then lunch at The Wheel House, Paso del Norte, Bob’s Burgers & Brew or Gateway 1890 and always up for a beer at Beach Cat. He loved Blaine and all the friends he made along the way. He will be
greatly missed.
