Loss of a Friend.
Not a good start to the new year. The blogsphere lost an asset and I lost a friend this week.
Basti from “Basti Says” passed away last Sunday.
Bill was a real man. You never had to guess where you stood with him. His honesty and his wisdom will be sorely missed in the blogging world.
Basti/Bill died in OH on January 2, 2011 @ age 65 & was born in VA the only child of Shirley & Bill.
He was a retired employee of Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel.
He was a member of USWA, the Loyal Order of Moose and served in the U.S. Air Force.
Rest in Peace brother.

A lot of folks that didn’t know Bill had NO idea, Basti is that big cat Bill is holding…
Rest in Peace Bill, you WILL be missed…
I am so sorry. Sympathy and prayers to his friends and family.
Whoa. Please convey the mine and the Mr’s sympathies to the family. He was one of the Mr’s favorites.
He was one of the few reads that really was still “daily”.
Rest in Peace, Bill.
