Master Model Railroader #401 William "Bill" McMillan

It is with great sadness that this information must be shared.  On Tuesday, July 24, the hobby lost a valued friend and mentor.  Mr. William "Bill" McMillan ended his journey on earth at the age of 85.  Bill was an avid HO scale model railroader building his Ma & Pa layout and an On30 module, both to the highest degree, helping him to earn MMR status.  Bill will be greatly missed by many.
A memorial service will be held on Friday, July 27th at 4pm at The Episcopal Church of the Redeemer, 2341 Winterfield Rd, Midlothian, VA 23113.  A celebration (with BBQ!) following the service will be held at his home at 3608 Rivermist Ct, Midlothian, VA 23113.  All are invited.
To help with arrangements it would be appreciated if those who plan to attend please provide an email RSVP to preferably Ken Montero at va661midlo@comcast.net or myself at mgarber819@verizon.net .  Please do not respond to this message.
My apologies to those who receive this message multiple times.  Please share this message with others in an effort to share this news.

With all sadness,
Mike Garber
Midlothian, VA
