    Passing of our member William Wallenstein, AKA: Bill*

    I am so sorry, I know I'm not doing this right, but my father William Wallenstein passed away in September and he was an avid member... I just want to know what part of this site he was on... I'm probably in the wrong place. He taught me to cast my own when I was a child and I'm the only daughter left that wants to keep that part of him alive (my sisters cop husband took all his guns) I'm begging just to have this part left, he had things left for pp on this site, and I want to honor his wishes

    I am sure I speak for all in saying we are truly sorry for your loss. As you may have noticed from the posts your father used a "Handle" for any posts and not his his real name, so we typically only know others by that handle. It would also require a password to access his account, but under the circumstances the site manager may provide you with that information. I believe you can contact the server manager using "Contact" in the forum menu.
    It is unfortunate, but so true that when a person dies and has not spelled out their wishes in a will some family members think they are entitled to everything and the others nothing, I know first hand. I wish you well in your endeavors and should you decide to join this site, welcome.

    So sorry for your loss, it is always distressing to hear of one of our membership passing on.

    FYI,
    William's user ID is Bill*

    This is the most recent thread he started...but there are 800+ posts he made in other members threads.

    Sorry to hear of your dad's passing. He will be missed by the cast boolits family here. Meanwhile I pray that you have peace in this great loss.

    Condolences. Perhaps when the time is right Bill's daughter will post here and let us know how she is progressing as a caster or share some memories of time with her dad casting.
