Mrs. 68KO,
I seriously doubt that there was anyone "who didn't care about him."
As mentioned previously, we have all posted in the heat of anger, defeat or at other times we should have been hitting a wall instead, but the guys in Texas who gave us the opportunity to play this game have brought together a bunch of guys and gals who are just super people.
I have flown with many of them since the old Air Warrior days, got to meet many at different cons, and I have come to the conclusion that even your "enemies" are really friends you just like to shoot down.
Condolences to you and the children. I am sure Bill will influence them as they grow from the lessons he had already tought them, and you surely have a lifetime of good memories to help you through this difficult stage of your life.
From myself as CO and the -=1st=- N.A.S.T.Y., post on...we will do our best to do what we can to help you in anyway possible.

Mrs 68KO. I really wished I could have been at the memorial flight but work took me out of town and I missed it. If Doobs or anyone else wants to set up anouther one please let me know so I can attend the second one. It would be an honor to fly with you Sue.

Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. I know Bill would be proud to see you flying with all his friends. If you ever need anything you know this is the place to ask.

God speed.

I didn't know 68KO.  I'm not sure if I even ever fought him. I'm sure I've faced off against the 68th before (laws of inevitability).  I have therefore not posted on these threads.

Finally, I felt I had to.  I have been impressed with the 68th and the way they handled honering one of thier own and even more impressed that Ms. 68KO came here to share her grief.

to all of you.

BTW, whoever did the video did a great job.  It was a fitting and touching tribute.
I edit a lot of my posts.  Get used to it.

Yes, I was very distressed I couldnt make it to the first memorial flight, and I would very much like to be a part of another, should it take place. I remember he was a great part of the game, his missions legendary, and his dedication to teamwork outstanding. I really enjoyed flying with him and the entire 68th. Its nice to see someone carrying on in his name.

I don't know you & I didn't know him, but I am sincerely sorry for your loss & that of your children. Hold your head high & know that death is just the beginning of a much richer journey. Your husband seemed to have many friends here & after being here for two or three years myself I can honestly say having more than a couple people that really like you is a big accomplishment & speaks well of the person in question.

OMG  i dont know what to say,( i took a leave of absense from game when and how?)  i feel tears that wont stop, i met bill years ago when he was learning to fly in air warriors and the motleyaces brought him under our wing to teach him how to fly and bomb and he was a great pilot, when air warriors closed i lost touch with him (guess things like that happen) but when i downloaded aces high 2 years ago and was trying it out i ran into Bill again under 68KO we talked abit untill i realized it was MOTKO from the old AW days it was like seeing a long lost friend again,

i pray for you Sue and your children just know that you have a big community here as well as people you can call friends, Bill was and will always be my wingman in my heart and soul take care
