Bill McGraw was part of our newspaper staff, writing sports, staying for "paste-up" and having a good time with Johnny, the Williams boys, Mike, and me. He was witty and smart, liked to have fun, and was a good friend. So sorry to know he is gone. Any explanation would be appreciated by his high school friends.
