Mrs. Winn and family - I was terribly saddened to read of Bill's sudden passing. Through my dad, the late Judge Dave Williams, I knew Bill from the days of the Lowell District Court. It was my further privilege to have Bill mentor me as I began my PI practice, some 7 years ago. Every conversation, meeting and opportunity to talk with Bill was always a delight, more than helpful and tremendously supportive. Old stories of the days at Lowell District Court would come into our conversations, bringing back fond memories of the people and events of that time. My dad always enjoyed sitting in Lowell, and at the end of business, would stroll over to Bill's office in Probation for a chat. Dad held Bill in great esteem, as do I. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. May your memories sustain you; the love and support of those around you give you strength; and the knowledge that Bill Winn will always be thought of as a gentle man, a true professional and a very special human being. In time, a smile will come as you lovingly recall your memories. You have my very deepest sympathy.
