Wednesday, April 21, 2010. In Memory of Bill Spillers. Always very active in every aspect of university life, Bill will be missed by his many students and colleagues not only for his numerous scholarly contributions, but for his sharp wit and never failing sense of humor. He is survived by his wife Joy and his children.
