I just received this message from Arnold Menke.

Guys: Anna Whittaker just called to tell me that Will passed away today at
home. Please pass the word around to anyone that might want to know. I
think he was 98 on Jan. 1. He will be cremated and buried at Holy Cross (I
think). No special service is planned as Will did not want anything like
that. Arn

For those who don't know, Will was one of the pioneer photographers of rolling stock; and for those who didn't know him, one of the planet's true gentlemen. Always kind and helpful, he will surely be missed.
