He was a very kind, caring and intelligent gentleman. He had a gentle and fun sense of humor. When I recall memories about Bill I always smile. i enjoyed his Sagamore HIll volunteer days. I was blessed to know him. The world lost a priceless treasure. I am certain that Bill is in heaven. He will be missed.

Mr. Hildebrandt was the nicest man. I remember him well.He loved smoking his tobacco pipe in his office at South Grove Elemantary School.You can smell it walking down the hallway. You knew he was around. I remember his glasses and that infamous pipe. Such a great man. Sending thoughts and Prayers The Hendel Family
