No…this isn’t about the Mr. Bill you grew up watching on Saturday Night Live, this is about a dear friend of mine who is dying, Bill MacGowan.

Mr. Bill is a a kind, gentle soul who saved my ass in the early 90’s.

Billy Mac taught me to appreciate night blooming Jasmin and the benefits of an afternoon nap. He also shared in my laughter anytime a Thai friend of ours said “glapefluit”. We would burst out laughing every-time she said, “Ooh, you glow glapeflute at you hows?”

Bill asked a friend to call me, so I’m flying down to Gainesville in the morning to visit him in hospice. I have so much I want to thank him for.

You will be missed Mr. Bill, you will be missed….
