  1. Pam,
    Thank you so much for sharing this memorial of Bill. Although I work at Gardner Middle School, I actually met Bill at Harvard Forest. We started our association with Harvard Forest at the same time. I have seen his endless work with leaf buds out by our vernal pool. He was so dedicated to the environment and his students. A wonderful mentor and person. I was saddened by his passing.
