Growing up I had a mad crush on Bill Walton which I had long forgotten until his passing. You were blessed to have known him and to have been inspired by him. Thank you for sharing this lovely tribute.💙
Your article touched me. I recently lost my best friend of 53 years. I’m 67, experiencing a few health issues and I needed to read this. I feel your loss. Be blessed.
Thank you for sharing your friendship and grief. At this age grief is indeed one of our constant companions we apparently have to make room for at the table. The picture of the two of you shows how you felt about each other. ♥️
Loved those matchups with you and Bill. Some of the best basketball games in history!
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. It means a lot
Kareem is a role model for all Americans. Such a wonderful human being! God bless you sir!

Beautiful storytelling loved the Bruin players, Coach Wooden and the 10 years.

Condolences for your loss.
We should all have friendships like yours and Bill’s. Thanks for this inspirational tribute to your friend.
Thank you. I lost my sister-in-law on Wednesday, and you’ve managed to encapsulate much of the grief I’ve been feeling. The poem is beautiful.

You expressed your grief beautifully
I got to know Bill when I served as an Executive VP for Basketball Operations for two NBA teams; one of which was Portland
I then spent sometime with Bill when his son moved next door in Santa Monica.
What a gentleman you are.
