[SkateDC] Bill Cohen

[George Marinkovich]

Bill was one of those people you really looked forward to seeing again.

Unfortunately, the WAR listserve has a habit of swallowing attachments.

Fortunately, I think the picture you're talking about is available at his guest book.

I'll always remember Bill's smile.  His warmth brightened the rainy
EuroRoll in Brussels, where we often hit the movie theaters instead of the
streets.  What an appropriate city in which to watch "Charlie and the
Chocolate Factory"!  We also bonded because of our connections to people
with disabilities.  My brother Brian has Williams Syndrome.  Bill was one of the
few people I've met who knew what that was.  We had another small-world
moment when we realized that his then-future daughter-in-law used to work at my
old law firm. 

We were on many skate trips together, including this most recent one in South
Beach.  The weekend was just starting, and I hadn't yet had a chance to see
him.  His death was such a shock.  I can't believe he's gone.
