Bill and I were stationed together at COMFAIRNORFOLK in Virginia Beach in the late 60's. Although I haven't seen him since then, I remember him as a very high-energy guy and that he was a lot of fun to be around. He also threw very good parties, as I recall. A really good guy, very sad to hear he is gone.

Bill was a friend, fellow Vegas Valley Angel and a landlord. He was a very dignified fellow and always a gentleman. Traits we can all benefit from. I will miss him...

I believe that this is a practical world and that I can count only on what I earn. Therefore, I believe in work, hard work.

I believe in education, which gives me the knowledge to work wisely and trains my mind and my hands to work skillfully.

I believe in honesty and truthfulness, without which I cannot win the respect and confidence of my fellow men.

I believe in a sound mind, in a sound body and a spirit that is not afraid, and in clean sports that develop these qualities.

I believe in obedience to law because it protects the rights of all.

I believe in the human touch, which cultivates sympathy with my fellow men and mutual helpfulness and brings happiness for all.

I believe in my Country, because it is a land of freedom and because it is my own home, and that I can best serve that country by "doing justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with my God."

I believe those who knew Bill Goff would unanimously agree that the statements above characterize Bill's life. As an Auburn University Graduate, Bill would be flashing that endearing smile - knowing that he had to memorize the above "Auburn University Creed" by heart in 1959 as a freshman!

To some of us, Bill was like a father to some a brother, to many a friend. To Janice and I he was all of those and a fellow Auburn Alumni, War Eagle! Godspeed Bill!

This is a great loss. Bill was a principal supporter and founding board member of Impact Sports Technolgies, of which I am president. Without him we would have never gotten off the ground. He led a full and adventurous life from combat veteran to local business leader and was a Man in Full. My wife and I are proud to say we knew him and he will be sorely missed.
