Thank you, Bill, for your many years of dedicated service to the Global Alumni Network and the Schulich School of Business. You have been a leader, mentor, and friend to so many and it has been an honour to work with you these past eight years. Your legacy has set the alumni network up for success and I have no doubt we will continue to refer to you in the years to come.

Enjoy a much-deserved break, Bill!

Bill,
Congratulations on your retirement!
It has been a great pleasure to work with you, race to keep up with you in airports and, most of all, witness your incredible generosity and dedication to the School firsthand. I consider myself truly fortunate to have been on the DAR team during your tenure. Thank you for your guidance, support and all your leadership - I learned so much from you. While I realize this retirement represents the closing of a significant chapter for you with the School, I have come to understand that no one ever really gets too far away from Schulich!
I look forward to keeping in touch.

Dear Bill,

I am very happy for you and your family. I will always appreciate your friendship, your listening ear and the kind way you dealt with people. Thank you for the genuine interest and care you have shown to our entire community. Traveling with you has been a wonderful adventure - you outdo us all in your stamina and airport navigation.

I attach one of my favourite photos - when we awarded you with the Outstanding Contribution to the School Award.

Congratulations my dear friend.

Bill,

Though your incredible efforts you have created an amazing legacy for us all!

You have been both the heart and engine for the alumni association, creating a community and relationships that literally stretch around the globe!

It has been inspiring and an honour to work with you over the years on many alumni activities and events.

You may be "retiring" from activity duty but you will always be there with encouragement and support as the school and its alumni continue to grow and succeed.

Thank you!
Ann Marie

From Beijing, Shanghai to Hong Kong, our get togethers throughout the years have been insightful, global, and rewarding. Your personal touch and genuine care for each one of us was always heartwarming. Schulich couldn’t have found a better ambassador to keep our alumni family so closely knit. Though it’s been a while since we met up in person, I look forward to the day when we can. Good retirement my friend, there is still a world of friends out there waiting to share tales with you.
