Unhappy For those who knew Billbill

I know he posted in here a lot and a few of you do not venture into Muppets.

I am very saddened to say that he passed away two months ago and for any of you who want to pay your respects or have a quick post, we have dedicated a thread to him in the Muppet Show as he will always been known as the King of Muppets to us.

Billbill was one of the good guys on here, always made me laugh when I read his posts. He'll be sadly missed.

I've already posted how much I will miss Billbill
He was and still is a perfect example of how a muppet gentleman should be.
He will always live on in my heart.
He made me feel special and my many pm chats with him were greatly appreciated. He always had time for people.
A very special person who no doubt, is still carrying on his wonderful windups elsewhere.

I thought he was a top man... still do. Does it not thought always make life seem so futile when one of the good ones dies. If I remember he fought in WWII. christ I could never imagine having to do that! those men to me are heros and I wonder if in their final hours they look at the world as it is and wonder if it was all worth it.......... I hope he did!

funny how the internet works. I'd never have even know of the man and I certainly don't know his real name but in some small way he touched the lives of many people.

He's dust and ash now but what he did will be remembered by many. such respect for that.

RIP

Never really spoke to Billbill except on the occassional thread in NSR, when the hutch was left open.

Judging from those who did however, he was a man of great substance. So good in fact, they named him twice.

May you rest in peace Billbill.

my respects - does anybody have a link to the thread where he posted about his wartime experiences - it made quite salutary reading
