I'm so sorry to read of Bill's passing, and for Bernadette as well. I typed many scripts for Bill years ago when he lived in Danbury, CT. I have fond memories of our conversations and will forever remember his kindness.

I knew Bill and Bernadette for many years. Bill was an inspiration to me and to many others, and taught me many things about life, love and how to live one day at a time. He will be truly missed. I was fortunate to meet Larry and spend time with both he and Bill at various points over the years. It's so incredibly hard to lose a parent - my prayer to all of you is that each day the hurt is replaced with peaceful, comforting memories that always make you smile. Love, Diane Hamm-Vida/Gongora.

Bill Borchert was a true renaissance man. He was an author, wrote screenplays, movie producer, gifted speaker and husband, father and friend. Above all, Bill saved so many people’s lives leading them to sobriety. I recall his being on my radio program, and what a tremendous presence he had. My deep condolences to his family and fellow friends. Dr. Harris B. Stratyner Stratyner and Associates Clinical Associate Professor, Department of Psychiatry, Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai

I am so sorry for your loss. I just visited Stepping Stones for the first time on September 6th of this year, what a wonderful place. It was such an amazing and inspiring feeling that you get when you are there. Although I was not fortunate enough to have met Bill I think that anyone who dedicates themselves to AA and all that it stands for will always end up with his Higher Power! You are in my thoughts and prayers Bill, as well as your family. Sue L. West Long Branch, NJ

Bill welcomed me to our friends at Rye Harrison with open arms. I was the new kid in the early 80s making friends with folks who had more means than, "Bicycle Barb". It solidified my 40 year journey to happy destiny. He and Bernadette touched hearts of all hose paths they crossed. Thank you Bill as you embark on your next journey. RIP my friiend.
