The RIP crest posted a few pages ago Would make a great decal for all of his fans, and a possible fund raiser for his family. Race In Peace buddy, the feature you will enjoy tonight.

God Speed Bill, you told us this would be your last year, and you knew the end was near, thanks for providing some of us a place to feel at home. RIP, and condolences to the family. Bob

Sad to hear Bill is gone.

I first met Bill when he worked briefly with my sons (Danny Jr. & Derrek) at Dynamite Race Cars. A good man now gone.

May God be with Bill and may He comfort his family.

I haven't been here long and never met Bill but I'm sure he'll be watching the races upstairs.

R.I.P and thank you for creating IOW

Sending our love and prayers to Bill's entire family. May God lay his hands on you and comfort you in this time of need.

To Bill, thank you for all you have done to make our sport great! Now you will have to start a board in heaven so all the racers and fans can bicker with each other while you sit back, laugh and occasionally stir the turd! I myself will sure miss waving and playing chicken with you in the pits at Lincoln Park Speedway. Rest in peace my friend! You made one hell of an impact on our racing family here. Race on my friend, until we meet again.
Sincerely
Crystal Pottorff and The entire Pottorff Family

I always knew that someday this day would come, but I always prayed that it never would. Bill was my other brother and probably the most straight forward, honest and decent man I've ever known. This is a terrible loss for so many of us. He was one of a kind and just can't be replaced. The only consolation is that he's not hurting any more.

R.I.P. My Friend.
