Dear friends,

Our industry lost a great friend yesterday with the passing of Bill Fuehring of Bellevue, OH. The visitation will be Noon to 4 p.m. Saturday, October 28 and the Memorial Service will be held at 4 p.m. Saturday. The location is at Auxter Funeral Home, 1105 Castalia St., Bellevue, OH 44811.

Bill Johnson, Lexington, KY

We have lost a good person here. At my previous employer Bill helped us when we needed coaches quickly many years ago and a year later made us a great deal to lease a GP30 to finish a season.

Thanks for everything Bill!

Bill will be missed

I my self had worked with Bill on a number of occasions, Most notably during a deal to send the NKP Heavyweight Diner that I had recently bought to the MR&NKP as they had been following it for years in hopes of saving it. Bill spent his time for the museum to visit us in Virginia to over see the cars preparation. I'll never forget one night as we were preparing to head home after working on the cars, Bill promptly said "Well it's time to lock up the rust buckets" hard to look at the cars the same after that. He was light hearted and always made us smile. Every time we worked with him he was always fare and kind and always willing to lend a hand and step in when he could.

We will miss him
