RIP Bill Nix

[Bill Rayburn]

I am very sad to say that a long time friend and hobby running mate, Bill Nix, has passed. He died Sunday while he and his wife were vacationing in Florida. He was not a member of this forum but several will remember him as one of "The Three Bill's" from the National Sports Collectors Conventions. He was the quiet one of the bunch. He, Bill Kopperud and myself along with another friend, David Sykes, looked forward each year to getting together with our many friends on Tuesday night prior to the opening of the Convention. Over the years Bill collected Bobble Heads, Vintage Boxed Games, Advertising, Vintage Bats and Equipment. Most important of all he was an all around "Good Guy" and will be missed greatly.

"The Three Bill's Sporting Goods" plan to continue in the future with Bill Nix always with us in spirit.
