RIP Bill! So many movies,too many to list..first remember him as one of the punks that Arnold kills in Terminator to get clothing..the nasty older brother in Weird Science,one of the commandos in Aliens,heck he was even in Commando..really enjoyed his turn as a small town sheriff in One False Move.And a lot of much more recent work,hopefully others can post their memories..61 years old,much too young..

I'm shocked. I really, really enjoyed him. I feel like we've lost a friend. My favorite role of his: Hudson in "Aliens." But he had a bunch of great roles. Such a relatable guy.

But the grief that is pouring forth from his coworkers are a far more powerful testament to his character and talent than anything I personally know or could write.

Thank you for the memories and smiles, Bill.
