On 6 May 2024, we lost a dear friend of ASMAC, Bill Holman at the age of 96. Willis was often in attendance at luncheons, teaching masterclasses, referenced by inspiration and arrangements performed by others, and a genuine friend and nice fellow—a gentleman—to all who had the honor of meeting him.

Read the current tribute to Bill on the ASMAC.org website.
