  • Not sure if its the same Bill Bochsr I taught with a Bill at JJ McGrans UN late 60s and left my case with him for safekeeping. It had all sorts of personal stuff which I never retrieved as I never returned from England. Bull was a Good Guy and I cried in my last day. Rest in Peace Bill. Robert - Posted by: Robert.
