Re: Tragic loss of ST rider

This picture was taken last year at "ValvSTOC". This year that event became GruuvySTOC.

A big portion of the success of GruuvySTOC came from this man here:



This is Bill (SVL-1300) at his best. Not only did he bring the meat, he prepared it.

He was always there with the wrench, socket, flashlight or whatever.

When you think of Bill you don't remember what you did for him ... you remember what he did for you.

"He prepares a table for me in the presence of my enemies" .... made even better now because Meat Master Bill is at the grill.

Bill sounds like the friend that I hadn't yet had the chance to make.

I'm sorry to hear of this and my prayers for Mary and his family in their sudden loss. :pray1:

Re: Tragic loss of ST rider

I never got to meet Bill in the real World,,, but did have contact with him through this site... :(

Nothing I can say will help this... Just know Bill will be traveling with me to Alaska... I wish so many were not traveling with me this way,,, but they will be remembered along the way...

To those who knew Bill,,, a Prayer to you and Bill's family...

Re: Tragic loss of ST rider

Thank you to all for your prayers and support during this tragic time. My dad loved to ride so I know he was happy. You were all great friends to him and I thank you for that. I know he is in heaven smiling down at us all and we will be together again someday, god bless you all. Billy Galarneau ( Bill's son)

Speechless. I did not know him as I do not know many of you except through here. Condolences to his close friends and family on the loss.

Billy, very sorry to hear of your loss. Your dad made a big impression here and his parting is a terrible loss.. If there's anything we can do just let us know.

Re: Tragic loss of ST rider

When we figure out the arrangements I will post it for all, please just keep the family in your prayers and "ride on" as I would tell my dad, thanx
