Thanks for this Remembering Post, C.P. - - He and I were good friends and I always called him Wild Bill.
I think of him often, especially when I see 'this' Picture on my Computer Desk holding that big Salmon. R.I.P. "Wild Bill
The lettering is from a Memorial Throwdown that we did for him.

Sure enjoyed our conversations with Bondo, and thanks for living his legacy. We miss the “panel beater” too, and Chile Farmer as well.
