Thank you Frank for letting us know about Bill's passing. I met Bill in the 
mid-90's at the Bonney Butte hawk watch and enjoyed knowing him since then.  
I'll miss running into Bill unexpectedly in out of the way places, his 
tricked-out-for-camping VW van already parked at a trailhead.  I'll miss his 
photos, videos and short missives sent out on a "very tiny keyboard" from 
places like Yellowstone, Cape May and all over Oregon.  I'll miss his camp-out 
stew cooked up in a Dutch oven around campfires.  I'll miss his quiet nature 
and friendly smile, always glad to see you and find out what's going on with 
you; his stories of where he has been and what's next.  Thanks for all the 
great times and memories outdoors Bill, there's a lot of us that will miss you.

My close friend Bill Price died suddenly today. He was 70 years young and 
participated fully in all kinds of outdoor activities with youthful energy and  
enthusiasm. He made outstanding contributions to natural history research and 
education in Oregon and nationally. Just yesterday we talked at length on how 
to improve the Oregon golden eagle nest monitoring project that he contributed 
to immensely the past four years. We have lost a dedicated champion of the 
wild, tireless seeker of truth, and sincere and compassionate friend.

I'll provide details on memorial opportunities as they develop. If you feel 
like writing a Bill story, send it to me and I'll see that it becomes part of a 
memorial collection.
- Frank
