Wow. Terrible news. He will be missed around here. I will have to use the brush he made me tomorrow. I was just thinking about him the other day because I had not seen him.

I did not know the man but I enjoyed his posts and contributions to the forum. He will be missed.

Even though I had never met the man, he really was my inspiration for making brushes. His work was gorgeous and second to none. When I started I could only hope my work could be as good as his. In a way, he really was my Mentor, he taught me a lot of things about turning in general, as well as turning brush handles specifically.
I wish I could thank him for everything he taught me. He will be missed... RIP Pixelfixed.Burls, Girls, and all things that Swirl....

Such sad news. I have noticed Bill had stopped posting for a while now and wondered if he had lost interest or something else.
Condolences to his family.Stefan

Terribly sad news.
Thank you for all you did for this community Bill. You were a true craftsman, generous with your time, skills, and knowledge, and as has already been said, and inspiration to many of us.
Rest in peace Pixel.
It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
