I can't claim to have been close to Bill, but covering him as a reporter I respected his manner and intellect. We need more folks like him, at all levels of government, as both govt. and the media are often in no-win situations;-) Greg,

So,I want to thank you for sharing your kind memories of my father on your blog. It is nice to know that he was respected and liked by those that he had contact with during the professional part of his life. This is all the more important I feel because to him that was what really made his clock tick! Thanks again, Greg Friedman Dear Mr Lerten,

I don't think I've ever read anything of yours that's been shorter than 5,000 words ;-) Seriously, though, thanks for sharing this story. Bill was a great man and will be missed.
