  Not sure if anyone is still monitoring this, but Sensei Billy crossed my mind today and I Googled his name and this came up. Very saddened to hear - Billy was a great teacher and a good friend to me back 30 or so years ago when he was teaching me Tae Kwon Do at UIC. He was an approachable teacher with a great sense of humor and a good amount of patience. I was fortunate enough to get to know him a bit outside of the dojo as well, and really enjoyed talking to and learning from Billy and his years of life experience. I hope his family and friends have all "healed" as much as possible from this loss, and I trust Billy is resting in peace - he was a great man. Jeff Bilek [email protected]
